I mean if you call for support they will not help you I did not mean it
doesn't work.

If for example you call for word they will help you through a problem.

what do you mean by "they don't support it"
I am blind and I am using every dayvisual studio in my job with out any 
scripts.
is true that I can not develope visual interfaces with the designer, but 
sincerely speaking this is not my job, even in vs2003 where the designer was

fully supported I've developed ugly interfaces, so for a comercial company 
we are not the best man to do interfaces.
Puting controls on a form in such manner that they will not overlap does not

mean that that interface is a good one.
But you can also tab between controls on the designer and jaws read them out

and you tab them in the tab order and you can take the informations you want

from status bar or from properties window.
What kind of support do you expect for visual studio.
