The people from toad came to our work place and did a presentation and
that is one product that doesn't yet have its accessibility act
together. When I asked about that there were noises made about working
with me to get the product accessible but that's as far as that ever
went.

Hi,
I have recently tried both Toad and Enterprise Manager and could not get
around the gui. I have given up for now, but would be delighted to hear
from anyone who has had more success than I had.
SQLPlus is accessible, but the output from a Select wraps around if the
result is greater than the width of the screen. Even my sighted work
colleagues say it is virtually impossible to interpret the output when
this happens.
If you read the web sites of the makers of all of the above they will
say that their software is accessible. They even have documents
describing their VPATs, which are voluntary adherence to accessibility
standards. Where is the independent verification????
Take Care,
