I decided to download the JAWS software and try it out on openoffice. I then compared it with MS Excel and it read pretty much the same way. Their were a couple of differences. 1) When you click on an item in the toolbar of excel it read you the item. 2) It could read the dialogs of excel. It could not read any of the dialog items in OpenOffice. For example Tools-Options. It read the items in the tree, but not if you click a checkbox and such. I am sure that there could be others, but otherwise it sounded and acted the same to me. -- Adam Moore Founding Member http://www.opendocumentfellowship.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
