 Hi,
I am copying your message to a couple of lists related to blind programming in case others there wish to respond. Also copied is someone else who has expressed interest in developing an accessibility add-in for VS2010. My understanding is that VS2010 has significant compatibility problems with all screen readers at this time. Scripting could probably resolve some of these problems. I do not use VS myself at this point, but perhaps others may be interested in collaborating on a scripting project.

Regards,
Jamal
