Here's what I did to get java access bridge to work on my Windows 7 64 bit
machine.
1. Create a folder called JavaAccessBridge in your C:\Mydocuments folder and
extract the zipfile InstallJavaAccessBridge.zip downloaded from Sun java access
bridge website into this location.
2.Run the 32-bit version of the Java runtime. I had to uninstall 64bit java
that was installed by default on my machine. You can check online for the
latest version, but to make it easier locate the jre-6u22-windows-i586-s.exe
file you just extracted and press Enter on it to run it.Progress through the
installation wizard.
This Java program will work in 64-bit Windows, as do most 32-bit applications.
Note that it will be installed not into your Program Files directory, but into
64-bit Vista or Windows 7 Program Files (x86) directory.
3.Unzip the Access Bridge 2.0.1 Manual Install.zip file to C:\Program
Files\Java Access Bridge
4. Copy the following 3 files to the jre6 folders
jaccess.jar ? - where is this file in manual install Zip file?????
access-bridge.jar
and jaccess-examples.jar to,
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\ext
Copy the file accessibility.properties to,
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib
5.Copy the three DLL files
JavaAccessBridge.DLL,
JAWTAccessBridge.DLL,
WindowsAccessBridge.DLL
from the Access Bridge installerFiles directory into your new for 64-bit
C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory. This is where 64-bit Vista and windows 7 need to
have 32-bit DLLs.
6.Modify your PATH so that it ends with the Windows\SysWOW64 directory
To do this press Windows key to open the Start Menu-> Computer -> Properties ->
Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables -> System Variables -> PATH
to add the string ;%SystemRoot%\SysWow64 to the end of the existing PATH (or at
a minimum, that it appears after the entry for "%SystemRoot%\system32 in your
path).
7. To test whether your Java Access Bridge install worked, go to Control Panel,
navigate to Java and press Enter to open the dialog box. Tab Around and see if
the buttons and dialog tabs read out. If they do, you now have to locate the
registry patch file called OpenOffice_EnableAssistiveTechnologySupport.reg.
This file will be in your C:\Mydocuments\JavaAccessBridge folder.
8. Press Enter on it and press Alt+R to run the registry patch file. Press
Enter on the Yes button and press Enter to finish the installation.

Luciano, Java Access bridge is able to work on 64 bit. windows. It works on
mine, I had to do a manual install of it, as in copy the correct files in the
right place, but it ended up working. I could send you the way I installed
Java access bridge. The key is to install 32 bit java first, as the 64 bit java
that generally is in 64 bit windows by default is the bit that doesn't work.
Once you rip 64 bit java out and put 32 bit java in, then manual install java
access bridge, it works!
If you want more full instructions, I can send you the text file I wrote after
my experience getting it to work on my Windows 64 bit machine.

I want to share only text documents, so I don't Google Docs for spreadsheets.
I would like to use Calc in Windows, since I use it in Linux. However,
my windows is 64 bytes. As Java Access Bridge is not available for
this platform, I can't use it.

Oh! I really prefer to edit my documents with Microsoft Word. However,
I would like to read them online. I read an article saying that only
JAWS and Window Eyes could read online because they have a technology
called ARIA. However, NVDA is in rapid advance and what is said one
day can be false few time after. I don't know what is this technology,
but is NVDA already compatible with this?
if I can store and read, for me, it'll be perfect!

Hi,
You can't edit the docs online, but I think you can store them. Is that
good
enough?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I want to produce some documents in Microsoft Word and keep it
accessible online. Using google docs, people can create documents,
upload them and share it with another people.
As far as I know, NVDA doesn't offer support to Google Docs. If this
is true, I would like to evaluate other solutions. Dropbox? Well, for
this purpose, I don't like very much Dropbox. Files can't be viewed
online, they should be downloaded and viewed by means of our own
editor.
I don't know if there is another alternatives for google Docs and if
these are accessible for NVDA.
What might you say about it to me?
Luciano
