Thanks for reporting this, Raul. I confirmed the problem, but upon investigation, think it is a Window-Eyes rather than script issue. The script does not customize navigation within the listbox -- it just monitors the change in selected item event and updates the Details edit box with corresponding information.
More importantly, however, I tried with a Window-Eyes listbox and got the same behavior. Specifically, I tried with a list of files in Package Manager. If three start with the same letter, and you are on the second of them, pressing the letter, after speech has stopped, goes to the first rather than the third one. I got the same result with scripting turned off. Jamal -- Original Message-- From: Raul A.

The following is an oddity we've discovered in navigating the list of install packages. It's a bit tricky to explain so I'll do my best. It seems that if you press a letter to navigate to scripts beginning with that letter, and you keep pressing the letter, things work as they should. However if you press the letter let us say on the second script of that letter and let us say there are 3 or more of them. If you wait for speech to stop and another second or two, then you press the same letter again, instead of moving forward in the list to the next one by that same letter, install packages moves to the first one of the list of that letter. Below is an example. Press l once, it reads the first one, for me it's . learn scripting. Press it again immediately and the next one is read, for me it's loaded scripts. Keep doing this and interrupting it and you will find the next one is selected each time. OK, good so far so good. You can do this until you are blue in the ... face and it will rotor back to the first one and so on and so forth. For the bug. Now, press l until you hear the second or third one, preferably the second one to prove my point. Wait a few seconds when it's done speaking. Now press l one last time. Rather than continuing forward to the third one, it goes to the first one in the l list. So what I suspect is happening is that pressing the letter for what the script considers the first time, meaning after a pause, it goes to the first one of that group of scripts which begin with that letter. Definitely not as normal list boxes behave. Many thanks. -- Raul A. Gallegos .. GW Micro Technical Support Voice: 260-489-3671 .. Fax: 260-489-2608 WEB: http://www.gwmicro.com FTP: ftp.gwmicro.com
