Dave,

Forget about pressing Enter to get into Forms mode for a combo box. Just 
press Alt and down arrow, I think it's down, not up, and you're in the combo 
box and usually able to traverse the list of options. See if that doesn't 
work better. If not, sorry. But anyway, alt plus down arrow is the official 
way to get into a combo box.n

Hello Everyone!

OK, using jaws 11 and XP.  When I sometimes come across a combo box usually
I just press enter then up or down arrow then press escape when I have the
selection I desire.  There has been recently on a certain web site a combo
box that I press enter then when I arrow up or down it selects the one that
Iarrowed to first and won't let me scroll.  Make sense?  OK, how do I scroll
instead of it picking my first up or down scroll?

Thanks,

Dave
