Tom,
Not exactly. What I was saying is that in my experience using Jaws 16 on
Windows 7, 64 bit, the band, mode, and frequency fields are automatically
populated from the rig interface when it's active. But, when the rig
interface is not active, those fields are reported by Jaws as being "edit
combo boxes" but there's no ability to select from a list of choices by
using up or down arrow. Basically they act like simple "edit" boxes.
So I was reporting that calling them "combo" boxes is misleading. Without a
rig interface active, they behave exactly like the call, time, or power
fields which are correctly called "edit" boxes.
73, Jim

Jim:
I just posted my A C log experiences with Jaws and my windows XP logging
computer, using Jaws 14.
Are you suggesting that the band and mode selections are acting like normal
combo boxes for me, rather than text edit boxes, because I am using the
N3FJP rig interface with my TS590?

Correct. They are mislabeled with the wrong window control type. The same is
true in Jaws. They are actually edit boxes if you don't have the rig
interface turned on. If the rig interface is active, they are automagicly
populated.

Thanks Dave.
Yes it seems that they are really edit boxes being misreported as combo
boxes by window-eyes NVDA and system access.
Haven't tried jaws yet.
