Hi,
I posted to this group several months ago asking if anyone knew of a way to use
Jaws with QuickBooks. Someone replied and said they'd have scripts ready by
April. Does anyone know if scripts are available?
Thank you.

First of all, thanks to the person who put the Jaws programs list together. It
is very helpful.
I have found a program that I feel should be added to the list: the Instantbird

all my requirements of an email client and is hard to instal.

Try inserting your Jaws 15.0 program CD and running the setup file. You
should get the choices of removing, modifying or repairing the software.
Note: I have Jaws 9.0, so I am not familiar with later versions.

You could turn off the Windows Update feature for a week or a month and then
restart it when you have some idle time at work. I'm not sure when that

He'll need to have Jaws version 15 to get full functionality with Windows 7.
I have learned this to my cost.
True, there is NVDA, but in my experience Jaws is superior in reviewing the
total contents of the screen (Jaws cursor) and also in the ability to change
keystrokes.

Below are my opinions.
Don't switch to Windows 7. It's just a big hastle. I've had a Windows 7

automatic updates if you must, but I believe that the XP security risks are
hiped by Microsoft to try to push people toward
You are right. Those certainly were my opinions. It's all right to disagree
with me, I don't mind that a bit. But first let me tell you some of the
reasons I have for these opinions of mine.
Try these programs with Windows 7:
Outlook Express
Microsoft ActiveSync
Microsoft Internet Explorer
I'll tell you. IE6 has no fluff and just works.

Hello Andy,
Assuming you're using Outlook Express, you'll need to change the security
settings in your Gmail account.
The thing is, with some applications, Google detects they aren't "modern" so it
blocks their access to Gmail.
You should lower the security setting in Gmail.
