Hi,
Visual Studio 2005 and the scripts are probably the more accessible solution.
Quite a lot of accessibility bugs that were present in Visual Studio 2003 were
fixed in Visual Studio 2005, and whilst the add-in that Brett Lewis developed
addresses some of these problems in Visual Studio 2003 it doesn't address all
the problems that were fixed in Visual Studio 2005, either by changes to Visual
Studio or the scripts.
You can obtain a free starter version of Visual Studio 2005 in the form of one
of the Express editions. These are versions of Visual Studio 2005 aimed at
beginner programmers and each Express edition covers a particular language.
There are Express editions for VB, C#, C++, J#, ASP .Net, and SQL Server. As
they are aimed at the beginner they come with more material aimed at beginners,
such as starter kits, than other editions of Visual Studio 2005 or Visual
Studio 2003.

there are sets of "add ins" for the VS 2003 version at my grab bag sight, but
there only for jaws 5 and 6 I do believe, using VS 2005 with the scripts for it
available on the grab bag would be better in some ways.

not too certain about this, but I do know for a fact there are Jaws scripts
for Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio 2005. Whether or not either of those
script sets will work for 2003 I am not sure. And at the risk of sounding like
an advertisement, you may also want to try my website Blind Crawler and see
what the search engine comes up with.
JohnPG search for all of your Jaws scripts at http://www.blindcrawler.com/
Also be sure to check out Blind Crawler's Legend of the Green Dragon server
at http://www.blindcrawler.com/lotg/
There will be more to come from Blind Crawler very soon.

Hey everyone,
i know you guys will be able to give me the best advice about this. (i
almost started on a wild goose chase for JAWS scripts, but thought better of
it.)
i just installed Visual Studio 2003 on my brother's computer so that i
can introduce him to VB.NET. i'm really surprised that JAWS behaves very well
for selecting controls and adding them to the form, but performs very badly
everywhere else. In the code window, it just keeps reading the path of the
file instead of the text at the cursor. In the properties window, it reads the
value repeatedly (i guess because it's actually refreshing, though i can't tell
visually).
How do you guys get around this problems? Does anyone here use this
version of Visual Studio, or should we be using something more accessible?
Thanks so much for the help,
dusty.......
