Steve,
What do you mean by the basic office program that you get with Windows? What
exactly does it include? i assume this is another of Microsoft's efforts to
help us do our computing tasks well? Anyway, I'm not sure what George meant
about Office 2007 being buggy with JAWS 11 but imagine it has to do with the
ribbon interface, which hopefully JAWS 12 will make easier. My husband is
already using Office 2007 so I will hopefully be able to install a copy on
his license. I feel i'm going to have a lot to learn at one time and it's
hard to anticipate how difficult it will be from other people's reports of
problems. Oh well, one day at a time I guess. I've been anticipating this
transition for about a year and have finally decided to take the plunge now
that I have the money saved rather than wait for this PC to die completely.

Aaaaah. Don't believe everything you read.
Office 2007 works fine with either Jaws 11 or 12 on a Win 7 machine. The
Office 2010 programs that you install also should work, but the basic
version of Office 2010 that you get with every Win 7 pc won't work very
well because it is an ad-based free version that uses a web browser, so
Jaws can't script it.

Office 2010.
20007 I found a bit buggy with JFW 11.

Hi everyone, Sorry I was not more precise with the subject line.
I have a couple of miscellaneous questions regarding migrating to a new
machine with Windows 7. Firstly, I am jumping from JAWS 8.0 to 12.0 and
assume that I will need to do the authorization prior to a clean
install, right? I will not have access to the classic startup or
whatever it's called since I am only getting the Home premium version,
but are there any configuration changes I should make so that JAWS and
Windows will play well together? Also, does the Windows setup include
some version of IE or do I have to get this elsewhere, and if so what
steps are involved? I also need to decide whether to go with internet
Explorer 8 or 9 and office 2007 or 2010 and would like opinions on which
email clients people favor, keeping in mind that I'm used to Outlook
Express and have had no real chance to work with Windows Mail or
Thunderbird and am somewhat leaning away from Outlook. I think those are
all the questions for now, but there may be a few others before I'm
done, smile. Many thanks for all assistance.
