Generally if a focus control is not assigned to a default action with the keyboard such as pressing enter to press a button or pressing the space bar to check a check box you usually can click the mouse on that button. So you tab to the control and route the mouse pointer to the focus and click the left mouse button.
If controls are not focusable using tab the list focus controls app is very helpful here. If you want to find a button clickly to click on it or perform some other task the hot spots app is usuefull here. Hth Jim Grimsby JR.

Though it kind of didn't matter anyway, since we're moving away from that piece of software anyhow. Now question then. Have you ever tried to use that and once the button was labeled, you weren't able to click it still? And if so, what was your next step. From: Jim Grimsby JR.

So lets say you want your desktop to say pretty katherines desktop you can simply issue the command type pretty katherines desktop and the next time it gets focused window-eyes will say pretty katherines desktop. It is really useful for edit bboxes and buttons with no static text lables. Hth Jim Grimsby JR.

Hello, The question is in the subject line. I know that that facility has something to do with labeling originally unlabeled text on controls and such, but what exactly is it? I just tried it while on the desktop doing nothing important, and it prompted for a field name. If somebody could let me know, I'd appreciate it.
