Part of me has issues with continualy contacting Microsoft to ask or
beg them for accessibility. We have money. We have alternatives.
Forget Microsoft and take your business elsewhere. Be sure to let them
know it too.

Dear all.
I have just been in contact with Microsoft developer team for Mac
and have
had a rather at length discussion with the team regarding office and
accessibility with voiceover. they have asked if I would post a
link for users of
this list to use to contact microsofts Mac developer team directly
with
suggestions and concerns.
please go to:
_www.microsoft.com/mac/suggestions.mspx?product=word_
(http://www.microsoft.com/mac/suggestions.mspx?product=word)
they have assured me that they are in talks with apple regarding
this issue
and are attempting to solve this for the next updated release or so
dependant
on the issues raised and how the coding needs to be altered in
accordance
with the apple developer accessibility guidelines
please. I urge you all to contact through this link to discuss
issues and
place your concerns. please do not however heavily criticise or
become strongly
opinionated as a few of us have set some ground on this issue
including
myself.
I hope you may find this productive as I am assured that the more
users
send data to the technical developer team for office for mac we
will see some
accessibility intergrated
so please forward this email to any blind or visually impaired mac
user or
future mac user who wishes to see changes
thank you all and lets pray for a brighter future with apple and
microsoft
office.
yours
