Try changing the line:
_textOne._accProps.forcesimple = true;
to:
_textOne._accProps.forceSimple = true;
I'm pretty sure the .forceSimple accessibility property is case sensitive.

Interesting. What version of JAWS are you testing with? What version
of the Flash player? Can you post a link? The FLA?
Thanks,

Subject: [Flashcoders] Accessibility: TextField Reading Twice
Desperate for help, have been fighting this issue for a week:
I've been playing with a set of components for non-technical users:
Basic idea is to provide some simple full page components
that are accessible without any real effort on the user
building the fla.
So, they're finished and have been reviewed by a
accessibility place out of VA. Everything seems to be working
perfectly, spare one silly item:
When JAWS is reading the page content, The TextField in one
and only one component reads twice, every time. However, if
you tab from item to item in the flash movie, none of the
items read the text twice.
I've viewed the movie in the debugger and confirmed that the
text is only set for that TextField and doesn't appear
anywhere else. I've traced out text for every MC on the page,
and I've set the TextField __accProps to be silent and added
the text to the _accProps.name of the containing MovieClip.
Still reads twice. If I strip out the accessibility code for
all items in the component, that bit of text is read.
Anyone know of a way to figure out what's happening?
The accessibility code is very simple:
_textOne._accProps = new Object();
_textOne._accProps.name = removeHTML(__text1);
_textOne._accProps.forcesimple = true;
_textOne.tabIndex = _loc2.text1;
_textOne is a MovieClip with a TextField inside of it at 0,0.
Really the only thing it adds is a setSize() method that
resizes the TextField if the layout changes, and a get/set
Text property. The rest is as simple as it sounds.
Thanks for the help
