Hi Justin,
Oracle sql * plus is accessible with a screen reader. I have read
that you can access other Oracle graphical tools but there are java
and jaws issues since Oracle uses a proprietory Java Virtual Machine.
See access.oracle.com for more information.
Oracle support is very helpful. The documentation is also very
accessible.

Hi Justin,
I use the command line utility provided with Oracle, SQL*Plus to work
with
Oracle DBs. I have partial sight and use large fonts and a high
contrast
colour scheme on Windows but suspect that being a command line
utility JFW
will work perfectly well with SQL*Plus.
If you're used to SQL Server I suspect there will be a pretty steep
learning
curve if you do decide to go with SQL*Plus as you get the most out of
it the
more you know. I haven't found anything easier to use or anything you
can't
do with it and together scripting it can be extremely powerful and
effecient
development environment.
I'm sure others who work with Oracle regularly will be able to
suggest
perhaps more user friendly tools but at least there is one option for
you.
It's always difficult when you are asked to move outside your normal
confort
zone and it's always nice I find to at least have one option
available.
Good luck.
Cheers
Ian
