And therein lies the problem. I am writing scripts for various Meditech installations and the icon might not always be in the same place. That's why I am trying to come up with something more generic. Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

You will need to know what line the icon is on and down arrow to that line then arrow across to the icon you need.

Maybe a Key "{right}"? I'd suggest playing around with it by hand. (I'd try it myself but my Client Server access is currently down.)

Does anyone have a routine that looks through all icons on a screen and goes to a particular one? Something like (from the Boston help) Do Until At("[EMAIL PROTECTED],4") ' Tab until Inpatients icon has focus Tab_ Stable ' one second delay Loop This, though, does not work for me. When I hit "Tab" a menu pops up instead of moving the focus to another icon. I tried repeated "{DN}" commands, but this only goes through the icons in one column and does not continue on to the next column. Thanks.
