Hello, I was interested to hear that you downloaded jarte and it
was working for you. I tried downloading it and it said I needed
something else with it which I never seemed to find. Did you have to
do that also or did jarte work for you alone?
Thanks.
Bud
tip of downloading Jarte which I am using quite satisfactorily
now. The GW Micro message is reproduced below for your information.
Hope this helps.

Hello Akbar,
Since Microsoft doesn't allow add-ins for Office starter, our
enhanced Word support is not available. While a document is open,
you can open Window-Eyes, move to
Verbosity/Office/Word/Miscellaneous, and uncheck the "enhanced
support for current Word document" checkbox to cause us to fall back
on our older way of reading the screen. This is a per document
settings, however, and must be repeated for each new document you wish to read.
if you don't necessarily want to use Word, the Jarte program from
www.jarte.com can probably open your documents, and it is known to
work very well with Window-Eyes.
Regards,
Steve

Hi,
I have a new HP laptop with MS Office starter version. Till I can
afford to buy a full version of MS Office I would like to manage to
read some old word documents with the present availability of the
starter. But I just don't seem to be able to read anything with
it although my sighted son says that the document opens up fine and
he can read it. Is WE 7.51 compatible with starter? If not, is
there any way I may read my old word documents, maybe with some
other program like Open Office ?
Thanks and regards,
Akbar

On my new laptop, there is something called Microsoft Office

until I get Microsoft Office on that machine, but it does not seem
to work well with Window-Eyes. Is Microsoft Word
Starter a different program than Microsoft Word rather than just
being a limited version? I may still not have something
configured correctly but thought I'd ask here before I spend a ton
of time on this. Thanks for any information.
