Hi,
I Wonder if any of you can help? I am currently using the latest build of JAWS 14 with Vocaliser voices. At work, I need to access and support an old MS DOS application and am having trouble getting JAWS to speak menus, forms, fields etc., within the application. I used to run a DOS Screen Reader many years ago, however, it was dependent upon a hardware speech synthesizer. Is it possible to run a package like JAWS For DOS on a PC, alongside JAWS 14 and, if so, how might I go about this? Would JAWS for DOS work with a software synthesizer? Alternatively, how might I configure JAWS 14 to work better with a DOS application (DataEase Database Software), or are there any scripts out there which might help? I know that JAWS works fine with the Command Prompt in WINDOWS XP, however, this is pretty rudimentary. I contacted Freedom Scientific but they cannot offer any support. They suggested contacting some of the user forums for advice. I look forward to hearing your thoughts, realising that some of the younger community on the list may not even know what MS DOS was. With Kind Regards, Charlie Nicol. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
