Subject:RE: Sentence Structure From:"Leslie Johnson (Wasser)" <a-leslij -at- microsoft -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 10 Nov 2000 13:16:38 -0800
<snip>How do I fix this sentence:</snip>
Here's one possibility:
In Empower runtime, when an item receives focus in the Funding Checklist,
the cursor automatically moves to the underscore character(s) in the item
text.
Thoughts:
1. Do you need the In Empower runtime phrase?
2. Can the 2nd "text" be described differently? Perhaps item description?
3. You could split the discussion - the 1st discussion could talk about how
the cursor automatically moves to underscore character(s) in *any* item
text. The 2nd discussion could discuss the cursor movement for the Funding
Checklist item text specifically.
4. You could show a picture, if that'd help.
HTH!
