Hi Kate:
When you say you tried to create a Sql DB did you use Visual Studio or Sql 
Management Studio or something else?
SQL Management Studio has been messy over the years but I've not had to script 
it but didnt work much with those features which did get messy to even look at 
and seemed pretty bad.
Those Grid controls are used all over the MS Environment and have been 
problematic since 2005 when I first asked GW about them and was told they were 
not standard controls and not supported in WE.
I am not sure about today's WE though.
Now, if you want to script a grid control you can do it, I did it in an old 
script and got it to work much better but that was several years ago and I am 
not sure I still have that script around.
When you create the script you are best served in this case to create the 
script to work with the program you are using.
So, if you are using Sql Server Management Studio you would create a script for 
Sql Server Management Studio and address either Grid Controls in general or 
that particular Grid Control to make it read the way you want.
Note that some Grid Controls are arranged by Columns Within Rows ( Normal 
Layout ) and some are arranged Rows within Columns ( a wierd but sometimes used 
version of the Grid Control).
I would recommend building a script for the particular application like Sql 
Management Studio or Visual Studio and then scripting that particular Grid 
Control.
That way you can address any other accessibility issues within that application 
and keep it all associated to that specific program whenever you open it for 
use and wont step on any other programs.

  Subject: Creating apps to give Window-Eyes support for certain control types?


  I've probably asked this question before, but I still don't necessarily 
understand it.  I was just trying to create a database in SQL Server 2012 (full 
edition) and I have realized that with the limited support that Window-Eyes 
(and JAWS for that matter) has for it, it is extremely hard to make any 
advanced configurations with said database (using filegroups and secondary .ndf 
files to split the data across files, growth configuration, and others) that 
could make life easier.  I'm learning how to write code in C#, and I'd like my 
first project to be a Window-Eyes app that will fix this .net grid control 
issue, and so I was wondering if anybody had any current samples in .net 
2010/4.0 I could look at like from past projects?  And then my next question is 
this; should I target the actual program (MSSQL Server 2012), or should I 
target the control type (.net grid control, which I was told by support that is 
currently not, and will not in any future version, be supported)?  Thanks.
