You're right, that's not it. It's completely loaded and will just sit
there patiently waiting until I click on it with the mouse. Then the
automated script action starts again.

It didn't help. Since programming isn't my knack, I wanted to check if
there was something that WATIR/Ruby could do to handle it.
I can get the developers to put a default start point/focus into the
app. It won't be the first time I pester them with my
agenda. ...*THIS* I have a knack for. :o)
Thanks Tiffany!
