teamviewer and passing keystrokes to remote side
HI all. Considering giving up rim in favour of team viewer for remote controling computers. Rim is expensive and has some pretty serious issues if the remote end has another screen reader running, particularly jaws. However, I have a few questions. 1. how do I pass screen reader key strokes to the remote side. typically, this will be nvda key strokes. I must be missing something because even when I execute nvda commands in the remote window, they are acted upon locally. 2. I can not figure out how to end a session with a keyboard. Does anyone do this regularly? if so, wouldn't mind chatting via skype or something and actually experimenting a bit to get this right. thanks for any ideas.

Hi, I posted a couple of weeks ago regarding this. Quit your local screen reader, then this free's up the numpad and the other SR keystrokes. To get back into local ctrl, alt t for local lock screen, alt t for task manager, then Win Key m to get you onto yoru desktop. Next fire up your screen reader by hitting WinKey plus r, and in my case type NVDA, and thump return. Careful when alt tabbing not to get stuck back in TV. Yes it's faffy, but it works if you need to use TV. TV isnt' true remote access for us with a decent performance because it's not pasing audio directly, but because I found RIM utterly rubbish and needed a way to access PC's unattended I went for TV and I manage around 35 PC's and 20 laptops spread out over the country solo with this.
