Hi all,
  John, I changed verbosity to beginner and worked in Access '07.  It
read the form fields to me then.  I didn't remember having to use
beginner verbosity in '03 to get that result, I checked and I didn't
have to; I could use advanced and it would read form fields, data
entered, ETC.
  I will post this in a separate message, too, because someone might
delete this one since the subject is Access.  Anyway, anyone know a
good way to handle the Office '07 ribbons while running JFW 11?  I had
11 last year but didn't have Office '07 installed, so didn't have to
deal with the ribbons.  In 12, of course, you can use the various
buttons on the ribbons, but this doesn't seem to be so workable in JFW
11.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I know you can use old
2003 shortcut keys if you know them, but I don't know the ones for
Access.
  Thanks and take care,
Shanda
