Victoria,
Many JFW and Quicken versions ago, there was JFW support for Quicken. However,
if you look in the JFW Help under Using JAWS with Popular Applications topic,
you won't find Quicken mentioned any more. Some people have said they still
use Quicken by remembering the position of each data entry field or by using
the JAWS cursor a lot, but I wouldn't recommend it for someone who hasn't used
the program before. Unfortunately, Microsoft has never been interested in
making their Money program accessible.
APH sells a check writing program called "Money Talks." I don't think this
program has the capability of importing bank data.
I use Microsoft Excel to keep up with expenses and income, automate the payment
of my regular bills and use a credit card and a debit card to make any other
payments. I only need to write 2 or 3 checks a year using these methods.

Subject: JAWS and Quicken
Hello, I would like to know whether anyone on this list has ever used JAWS
and the Quicken Software. I would like to know if it is compatible. I have a
friend who uses Quicken but he uses magnification software, as he is legally
blind and not totally blind.
Many banks give you the option of either using Quicken or Microsoft Money;
they are check writing programs. If anyone has used Quicken with jaws, could
you tell me what your experiences were, good or bad. I would hate to purchase
that and have it installed only to find that jaws might not work with it.
Any assistance you can give would be greatly appreciated.
