  I have office 2002 and seem to have some problems with outlook.  I was 
wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to get a copy of office 2003 
someplace.  I am not interested indealing with the ribbons with jaws.

  One of the new features mentioned in the JAWS 12 preview I posted yesterday 
is a "virtual ribbon" option that will emulate the classic menus in Office 2003 
while retaining the ribbon menu structure everyone loves to hate.  For those of 
you who do not plan to upgrade to JAWS 12, I just discovered a great little app 
called Ubit Menu that adds the classic Office 2003 menus to the Office 2007/10 
ribbon menu.  Once you download and install this app, you bring up the ribbon 
menu by pressing Alt, right arrow to the Menu tab and hit Enter.  Then you can 
tab and shift tab through the various classic 2003 menu options for Word, Excel 
and Power Point.  It works well with JAWS 9, and does not disrupt the existing 
ribbon menu structure in any way.  So you can have your cake and eat it too; 
classic Office 2003 menus, or the newer and more frustrating Office 2007/10 
ribbon menus.  So who needs JAWS 12 anyway? Besides, Ubit Menu is availabel 
now, so you don't have to wait for JAWS 12 to be released.
