Hi, Okay thanks for your response. Last I checked, I didn't pay for a volunteer run screen reader. Hats off to the author of the WE4Java script, but if they can't update it, I think it's time GW took it over. After all Java is a mainstream product and there should be official and active support for it. We shouldn't have to wait for volunteers to get around to stuff like rewriting Java support. Munawar A.

Their Java script was written by a volunteer who can not spend much time with it now. No one has mentioned working on a 64-bit solution to the Java Access Bridge or the WE Java script. I do not know the effect of running a 32-bit application on a 64-bit system. I use the regular Lotus 7 at work on XP. Most of Lotus works; however, I cannot see my outgoing messages as I write them with my Brailliant and Pacmate Braille displays.

Just need clarification on that last bit. If it won't work, are there plans to make the WE4Java scripts work with 64-bit Windows? Thanks for your response, that sure explains a lot of strange behaviors I've been having! Munawar A.

However, this did not correct my Open Office problems, so I gave up on it. Recently, I heard about IBM Lotus Symphony which implements IAccessible2--the same API the WE4Java script uses. I installed JRE 1.6, then latest version of WE4Java, and then Lotus Symphony. I am able to navigate the menus and read the dialogs just fine; however, the edit box for me to type stuff does not read. Curious, I loaded the Notepad Demo and found the same problem there. Although the Notepad Demo did cause W E to produce the WE4Java start up sound, when I arrowed around the edit box I got no feedback. I then loaded NVDA and it read the edit box in Symphony correctly, so whatever it is seems to be a W E issue. Does anyone know what is causing this? I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit under a standard user account. The JRE installed to c:\program files (x86)\java\jre6; likewise, the setup installed to c:\program files (x86)\WE4Java. After the setup completed, I got an error saying that some process could not be started because it needs elevation. I thought this to be the Java Utility in the WE4Java start menu grouping so I ran it separately. It detected my JRE properly and installed to it. When I checked accessibility.properties in the JRE it does have the W E command in it (I don't remember what it is right now.) Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is the second Java program I've installed which claims to have some or other API that W E supports but I have had no luck with it. -- Munawar A.
