Howdy,
The only other quick work around that I can see is for jaws users to creat
frames for the status bar around each individual area for each individual
identifying characteristic and assign a keystroke to each frame position.
Dirty, but it seems workable.
Cheers,
Hayden

Hi,
The only thing I can add to this discussion is that when you use insert
page down or better jawskey page down then the intire line is read out
lout.
It can some times be a bit chalenging to remember all the information
presented on such a status line especially if there are many different
figures.
Yes, I can see that (ha ha). What I tend to do is if I want a particular
piece of info and if I can't catch it by reading the whole status bar is
to press the initial letter of the field (as if you were going to edit)
and then press ENTER to call up the normal edit dialog, then press ESCAPE
once you've heard what you want. Just don't press ESCAPE twice as it will
take you out of the editor.
How's that for a dirty work-around?
Of course, those with some scripting knowhow could write dozens of JAWS
macros to read each individual field, that would be possible as well.
Hope this helps.
James.
