I Want to thank all those who have responded to this thread, In particular those
of you who are New, Win-Eyes users because of the MS-Office offer, and to Doug.
I have forwarded a selection of the responses to the appropriate Tech-users'
group, and have received almost immediate back-peddling responses over the
phone.  Good job, folks!

Subject: Re: Functionality of the MS-Office Version of Win-Eyes

Louis,

As everyone on the list has stated, this is not the case.  The Office version of
Window-Eyes works with everything the full retail copy does.
The windoweyesforoffice.com web page talks about the only differences.
These are the default synthesizers, support, CD, print material. But the
functionality of Window-Eyes is identical.

There is no way a GW Micro representative would ever say the Office version only
works with Office and nothing else.

Feel free to have these people contact us directly or visit the
windoweyesforoffice.com web page.

Regards,
Doug

Yesterday, at a tech-user's meeting in NH, the Win-Eyes version that
is available with MS-Office was discussed, and we were told that it
does not work in all programs, only within the Office suite, and, for
example, it does not work when using Notepad or Wordpad, for instance.
I would really like to know if this is true.  I am a long-time
Win-Eyes user, and of course, spoke up for my Win-Eyes, but we are
definitely in the minority up here, so I was quickly squelched.  I was
told they had sat in and asked questions at the Webinar led by GW and
had pinned them down on this point. So, GW, is this true?  If I bought
a new computer with an acceptable version of Office on it, would I
discover that I had no speech as soon as I brought up Wordpad or
Notepad, or How about in Windows Explorer!?  This surely does not fit
my first impression of this Microsoft/GW offer.  It wouldn't affect
me; I'll probably always pay for my copy, because I like Win-Eyes, and believe
in supporting the company producing it, but I'd like to know my facts when I
open my mouth and put my foot in it!
