oops, I have it now.  when I find one of these clickable items, you can either 
show or hid each clickable item via the status marker (show/hide)
to the left of it. regardless, activating the clickable item will show its 
action to its right.
a good example of how this works can be found by interacting with the toolbar 
in help, typing "selecting and deselecting multiple items" in the search box 
and pressing enter and using vo to navigate the "html content".  once there, 
you will see items with a show beside them, you can press this and it will show 
the item that is listed to the right of it to the right of te item name or you 
can activate the "clickable" item and vo to its right to view its instruction.

HTH!

I can drill my way down until I come to an area that presents me with a list of 
clickable items that can only be "shown" or "hidden" when I click on them. The 
items include "select single items", "select multiple items", "deselect single 
items", etc.

Is there a way to select and copy text found in an html area such as that shown 
in the help screens? Maybe if I can copy and paste what I get into one of these 
messages, you can identify where I find myself.
