Hi, for what you want, Outlook 2003 would be excellent and you can run several diaries if you wish. It's simply a case of learning all the views and doing a lot of modification until the layout is as you like. I never leave Outlook in anything like its default situation. I like the All Appointments view rather than the day view and if you use tasks and notes too, it is very powerful.


Cheers
Dave

Subject: [jaws-uk] Accessible Diary system

Hi all,

I spend much of my spare time working for my beloved blind golfing
charity and am now finding I need to get myself a system to log dates,
reminders, things to do by a certain date, deposits to pay on such a
date, charity reports and returns etc....

Is there a Jaws friendly accessible calendar/diary programme out there I
can use which for example, I can setup e mail prompts when I need to do
certain jobs, warn me of approaching deadlines etc?

My pc at home is XP Pro, with Office 2003, but I only operate Outlook
Express on it. Although this work pc has Outlook, a good calendar and
you can pre set a date and time for sending e mails, I can't really use
that for personal business, I'd get a clip round the earhole.

Any tips, or good office management skills much appreciated.

Or, is my best option to do a modify with my Office CD and replace OE
with the Outlook 2003? I thought it's calendar system didn't work that
brilliantly with jaws, or have things improved?

Kind regards,
