Ted,
If you don't have JAWS 10 still installed, you should be able to install it
from your CD or the downloadable file and have it co-reside.

I'm flirting with the idea of reverting to 10, then jumping back to 12.
After all, 10 was the last time Access worked. I filed a beta report, and
mentioned that strategy; let's see what I get back. Sounds like a weekend
project to me.

Ted,
I agree with both your points, and unfortunately don't have any idea on how
to help you with MS-Access.
Yes, Text Analyzer could be really nice.

The whole thing was pretty smooth. I was underwhelmed by the virtual
ribbon, and turned it off. However, I noticed that 12's handling of the
Microsoft ribbon is better than 10-11's. Unfortunately, Access still doesn't
work. I'd darn near give a week's pay to know what broke between 10 and 11;
why only this one application, and what is the hardware-software interaction on
my particular machine?
The Big sleeper here may be Text Analyzer. For those of us who write, this
could be a real bonus.

Ted,
This one is pretty benign. And yes, they can coexist so you can switch
back/forth. I recommend that you make sure you have your current JAWS shortcut
set to a hotkey like Ctrl+Shift+J to make it easier to launch.
Also note that after you install the JAWS 12 Beta, it will turn off the
auto launch of your current JAWS, so make sure you set that back before
rebooting.

I've never fooled with one of these before. If I decide to install, I
gather from the Web site that it will coexist with JAWS 11, and will,
presumably, run until the commercial product is available. Anything I need to
know about the installation or uninstallation process? Given all the problems
with 11, I'm partly hopeful, and more than a little gun shy.
