Hello Barbara From my own experience of trying, I don't think you will get Open Office to work with Jaws. When I tried it, I found it very inaccessible and the only good thing I discovered about the program was how to uninstall it LOL. You could try if you want to, but my advice really would be to avoid it altogether. Have a good new year.

Is this normally what happens? I am only worried in case it isnt a genuine message. Also, using JAWS and Windows Eyes, is it worth my while downloading the software, will it work with either or both of these programs? Barbara
