Hi, Marvin and list,

If you install the Java access bridge, OpenOffice Writer works reasonably well, and you can save your documents in Word format. That's the only free option I can think of. Otherwise, WordPerfect can be obtained for a reasonable price, and it works well with JAWS. Check www.newegg.com for the software for wordPerfect.
HTH,
Teresa
