That's exactly the reason I was using it -- for a college class. Be sure to wander through all the menus and play around so that you can do as much as possible with them while your classmates and instructor poke around with the mouse. I'll send you a list of keyboard commands off-list. It really helped me to keep up with the class.

It's for a class and most of the assignments are the basic uses of the software. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Carlson Sent: Monday, May 03, 2010 2:34 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Microsoft Project 2007 Yes, I have used it with both JAWS 9 and JAWS 11. There are no specific scripts written for it, so it's not extremely friendly. Biggest problems I've found is in the calendar section where you define the dates for projects, and the definitions of work days, etc. Lots of groping around with the JAWS cursor in many of these areas. However the Gantt chart views and resources, work well. What doesn't work well is in generating the reports. These are predominantly graphical and are not accessible. Also the interface for selecting reports is clumsy. I found it most useful overall in defining a project and setting up the successors and predecessor, so that the entire timeline is laid out. However using it to manage a project proves to be difficult -- trying to get to the part where a task start/end date are to be edited in real time to see what happens to all the tasks following it. Some of that I must admit is due to my relative lack of expertise with the program. Other than that, it's a powerful program and you can do most rudimentary things with it.
