I know this is a jaws list but I just want to mention that Office 2007 does work well with System Access which is a Screen reader made by Serotek. I use this screen reader at work and find it easier than using Jaws for windows for office 2007.

Hi Kerri, just on the subject of open office with jaws once I used it and quickly got rid of it. Can you you tell me one thing I notice straight away was that the "say all" command doesn't work that's to say you do the command and jaws just reads the current line your sitting on. Is this correct? I was surprised that Jaws doesn't work with this programme. I would really like it someone out there could be really brave and do some work with making it accessable meaning the programme and of course Jaws! I do really think I would use it then cos I must admit I hate microsoft's word 2007 I really find it hard about the rybin and such. Maybe someone could do a podcast on office programmes 2007 I know there's the daisy book you can download but personally I would prefer a more in death training on office 2007. If any one knows more infomation on a podcast on this with Jaws then please! let me know!Many Thanks Daniel -------------------------------------------------- From: "Kerri" <shalom75@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 02, 2010 10:48 PM To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Open officeHello, I've used (or shold I say attempted to use) open office and it doesn't work at all with jaws. The spell check is the worst I've ever seen as Jaws says Graphic 887 whenever it tries to spell check..----- Original Message ----- From: "Soronel Haetir" <soronel.haetir@xxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 02, 2010 1:59 PM Subject: Re: Open officeI've seen messages on one of the jaws lists saying it works once you install the java access bridge. Haven't tried it personally though, never liked OpenOffice even when I could see.
