The big boys charge big bucks, NVDA is free. You get what you pay for
in life and if you can't afford it then at least NVDA is better than narrator.
Steve Nutt recently said:-
Hi,
I know, but the big boys can handle it, JFW and Window-Eyes and even
Supernova has number control. It should be a basic function of any screen
reader. I'm surprised NVDA doesn't do it at core level, since it was
written by two blind guys and you'd think numbers as words all the time
would drive them up the wall, especially when programming.
All the best

Hello,
Not trying to hijack, but even IOS has issues with something like 999999, or
a phone number, at least, with punctuation disabled.
