While I don't want to discourage you from installing Window-Eyes, you
won't have any luck with LS. It's on our list.

I am surprised that nobody has tried Lotus Symphony 1.3 with
Window-Eyes since it is free and based on Open Office. I have heard
folks ask on the list about the accessibility of Open Office with
Window-Eyes. Version 1.3 of Lotus Symphony is based on the first
version of Open Office, and the beta versions that are being tested
now are based on version 3.0. I understand they still have
accessibility problems with the betas. As I mentioned in my previous
message, the word processor and spreadsheet in version 1.3 work
well with JAWS for Windows 11 and 12. I have loaded both Word 2003
and Excel 2003 files and saved them after modification. I do get
warnings each time I load such files about possible incompatibilities,
but I'm not sure what they are.
I guess I'll just have to install Window-Eyes 7.2 on my netbook and
give Symphony a try. Since I haven't installed Window-Eyes on a
computer without a CD drive before, I suppose a trip to the Knowledge
Base is in order.

Does the free IBM Lotus Symphony Office Suite work with
Window-Eyes 7.2? I put it on my Asus netbook running XP Home, but
I haven't yet installed Window-Eyes. I have discovered that the
word processor and the spreadsheet work quite well with JFW 11 and 12.
