Hi Susie,

DBT's "status line" is not the bottom line of the screen, so you have to move the Jaws cursor up one line to get the information you want. Also, if you're showing codes, the line/column/page information doesn't appear at all. I defined a frame for reading that information, and use F12 to read the frame. I could send you the frame definition, but you might have to tweak it to get it to work on your machine. Frames are supposed to work independently of window size, but in my experience that's not always the case. If you like, I'd be happy to talk you through defining a frame on the phone.

Those of you who use JAWS with Duxbury:  is there a way to determine how
many pages a document is after it's been translated--or before it's been
translated, for that matter!  Reading the status bar and using the JAWS
cursor have not helped.  Ann and Steve: surely you guys have a trick.
Thanks.
