Vincent:

1. Join the Program-Java list.... It's a George Bell list deadicated to Java
and the blind programmer.

2. Get rid of Notepad.... Eclipse from Eclipse.org is the way to go as an
IDE that will actually work for a plind programmer.

3. I'm assuming that you are either using AWT or SWING for this project?

Subject: [program-l] Blind student in JAVA class needs help

Hello:
I am in an advanced JAVA programming class and have just encountered some
obstacles.  When we started to use exception handling all hell broke loose
with the accessibility.  Using any class that brings up the Joption pane,
such as making a check register with confirmation dialogues for input will
not speak.  I am using the Textpad iDE and don't know if this is the problem
or not.  So far, it is the only IDE that would speak when I am coding.  Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
