Hi Kerneels,
I am using Windows 64 bit. I don't doubt it runs fine in Windows 32 bit.
Katherine, I know this is going to be a stupid question, but what is the
Java access client you talked about ? I am not a Java person, so if this is
what someone needs to get Windows 64bit to run Java Access bridge, where do
I get it ? I have another Windows 7 64bit machine to make work with NVDA and
Open office, so any hints to make the process easier, as you implied would
be gratefully received,
Thanks,
Britta
