Using ACCESS with JAWS and DRAGON

B

BS

I am involved with a project to make an existing access application compliant
with two Assistive Technology producs namely JAWS - a screen reader - and
Dragon - a voice activation application -.

In order to fully exploit the JAWS functionality, it has been requested that
all the controls on all the forms in the application be assigned unique id
numbers which can be addressed by the JAWS appllication which essentially can
address any values available to windows.

An api "SetWindowLong" has been suggested but I am not clear how this could
be used to achieve the objective as controls are not windows in their own
right.

I know that this has been achieved in Delphi but that product's architecture
is different.

I have suggested using the Tag property but this would not suffuice as these
vaues are not available to windows.

Any ideas?

Many thanks.
