Hi,
Of course Arron is correct when he says check MSAA events, but I can actually 
get the menu bar to read by using the alt key, then arrowing down to the first 
menu item which is new, in the file menu, and which is spoken, then by using 
the left and right arrow keys. Suddenly, the drop down menu which gives no 
indication that it is even open, seems to reorder itself, and the menu bar 
gains focus. I haven't had time to really look at this but I have seen this 
kind of thing before, and I think the highlighted menu bar which contains File, 
Edit, Search, View etc are being blocked or hidden from getting focus in the 
way that window-eyes needs to access them or covered by some toolbar. I have 
seen much worse in other applications.
Warm regards.

    Juan,

    

    Fire up WEEvent, and monitor things like window and MSAA events to
    see what's firing (if anything) when menus open and close. Start
    with that.

        Hey all, 
           
        I’ve been playing around some, and I wanted
          to make textpad the editor easier
          and more efficient to use.  When
          you hit alt, and arrow left and right window-eyes is silent.  I’d 
like to get the menu
          names read.   
           
           
        Thanks for any help. 
           
        Juan
