Hi Ray "JFW Java AccessBridge." What is this? Would updating Java without that Open Office software be of any advantage? - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rays Home" <rays-home@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, May 19, 2008 5:16 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Java upgrade | Andy, I am pretty certain that Open Office isn't really usable with any | screen reader yet, even with the JFW Java AccessBridge.
