Jeff,

Yes; Window-Eyes includes support for the Windows side bar. However, I
must caution you that this area has been entirely abandoned by
Microsoft, and there are Windows updates in the works which will remove
the side bar completely due to some glaring security problems. At this
point we don't recommend you use it.

Regards,
Steve

I am trying to use Windows SideBar on a Vista machine, WE7.5.4.1.

Vista is set to classic view. I set the sidebar to display on the left
of the screen and restarted my computer.  WE crashed twice with the
little crash jingle.

Finally got WE going again and tried to install some gadgets and access
them through the system tray with no success.

Will this work with Window-Eyes and are there some instructions around
for using gadgets and the SideBar?

Thanks,
