Hi Rick, Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, the class already started. I have been in the class since August. So far I have managed with some visual assistance. Can you tell me what JAWs scrip's do I need for JAWS 10.0? How do I create a class without right clicking on some little icon next to the project name? Any quick tips you can give me, at This point, will be greatly appreciated. My teacher has never taught a visually impaired student before, so I am on my own. I never thought I would have to do so much research. Not to mention trying to memorize all of those JAWS and Visual studio short cut keys. Anyway, I will take any advice anyone has to offer.

There are scripts for JAWS that help and it is pretty good out of the box with Windoweyes. As for UML Diagrams, I have never used them. I have attempted to use the VISIO Designer of Visual Web Designer and found it pretty much useless with Windoweyes and it did not look like something I could script for Windoweyes. I found other work-arounds for doing some things that initially called for using the VISIO Designer. As I mentioned I have never used a UML Diagram so can not help there either, sorry. If you are most familiar with JAWS get on the ball, install Visual Studio 2008 if that is your environment or the Express Modules if not. Then get the JAWS Scripts installed, the IDE set up for accessibility and that all will require some time and experimentation to get right. You need to have the Studio, the CSharp application module and your Screen Reader as well as the IDE settings in place and working well before you start your class if that is how your instructor is having you handle it. If the UML will be used with a Database layout, I don't know what it would be used for, then you might need additional software like the Sql Server application and perhaps the Sql Server Management Studio. Good luck with the class: Rick USA ----- Original Message ----- From: Celia Rodriguez <mailto:celia-rodriguez@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, October 18, 2009 11:27 AM Subject: C # and visual studio Hi, I am taking a C# class. Is anyone familiar with Visual Studio 2008? Can anyone give me a quick tour of the Visual Studio environment? Does anyone know how I can create UML Diagrams in argo or Visio? I guess what I want to know is how can a total visually impaired person create UML diagram? Thanks to anyone who can help me. Celia
