The screen reader JAWS was used to test the program. JAWS uses
the position of the cursor to read the text.
The tab key is used to move the cursor from item to item and the
space bar is used to select or deselect an item.
In a window containing text the cursor position is at the start
of each line.
Hint:
Some readers like JAWS do not handle the tab order
or the check Listbox control properly. Please consult your
vendor.
