[bcab] Re: Open office

Hello David

I did not use Open Office in the last two years.  At the time it was not
accessible but I believe major improvements were made.
I remember finding somewhere that to make it accessible you need to set a
switch in the applications options - unfortunately I think you need sighted
help to do this.

Before you even attempt to use it, make sure you install the Java access
bridge; this application uses Java Swing components and will not talk
without this.

Good luck.

Regards
Isaac

Hi all:

Is anyone using Open Office with JAWS 9 on a Windows
platform?

Any comments about its accessibility are welcomed.
