Hi Henry,  I've generally used Excel from Office 2003 and it works well with
Windows 7.   

I found that, for a small charity, having a debit and credit column, a
running balance and columns totalling the different categories of
expenditure was sufficient for the simple preparation of end of year
accounts.  If you need to use an accountant to file accounts with the
Charity Commission or companies House, they can easily lift any data from
the spreadsheet to insert it into any specialist lay-out which may be
required.  

There's also MoneyTalks from America, but I didn't find that the lay-out was
so easy for sighted people to work with and the data was harder to
manipulate if that was required.

Good Morning everyone

Please could someone advise on which is a suitable data base to be used with
either Jaws or NVDA to run on a Windows 7 home premium platform.  The data
base is for a small local voluntary society for the blind, and if anyone has
experience with data bases, any general advice will be most helpful.

best wishes

Henry
