Tim, If you do not already have it, I would very much encourage you to pick up the HarvestWindow script from Script Central. The report it produces is quite detailed but is extremely valuable in helping gain an understanding of the components of an application window.

One shouldn't discount the already powerful functionality that Window-Eye User windows provide in addition to scripting (along with hyperactive windows, and so on). I still wonder, though, why your SpeakWindow isn't working when you feed it an control ID. Can you send me your latest version of the script so I can play?
