Michael,
Yup, a real pain in the arse.
I have developed a bunch of databases in Access97 for use with JAWS and for my
experience; Buttons, Toggles, Yes/No controls and as I recall, Radio buttons
all have the same problem. There are 2 solutions that I use. Assuming you have
a status bar frame set up to speak all text, the easiest is to use the "Status
Bar Text" property. This is what I use most often. Simply type in the text you
want spoken when the control has focus. This way, when ever one of those
controls has the focus, your text shows up in the status bar and is read. The
other method is to create your own status bar on the form using a text box
control and set up a JAWS frame on it to read all. You would then use some code
to display text in that text box when your control has the focus.
