Amie, the only thing I have done is take off Word 2007 and put word 2003 on and
it still works quite well with Vista. You may want to have sighted help with
you when you first install jaws and when you first try to use vista, it is
different but I think better than xp. there are very few menues and mostly in
tree view but the best thing is type in the search for where ever you want to
go whether it is on your computer or on the web, this is very laborous at first
but once you typed something in several times the computer remembers and you
end up just typing a couple of letters just to get the places you most
frequently visit, e.g. wo for word, hot for hotmail, ya for yahoo etc. If you
decide to stay with office 2007 make a note of all the things in your xp word
menues and the key strokes you need to get to them because they only work on
first letter navigation in 2007, good luck with vista it is not as bad as many
people think
