Nice thing about this list is you have a bunch of helpful folk who can
do sanity checks when you get stuck. Either you'll get advice on how to
do whatever it is that you're having trouble with or at least somebody
can verify that something is broken in the same way you noticed. While I
played with open office I found some stuff accessible, other parts were
not or buggy. My noodling around was not exhaustive by any means and
whether those broken things matter to you depends on the task you want
to complete. Best test is to try to do some task with the tool and then
post here is you get stuck. I did notice that Libre Office came out with
a new version August 17th so I'll have to download and check whether the
table navigation is working yet.

I did not just want to play with it because I am still very new (not
quite a week) to the mac, so I would not be sure if a problem was in
my use of vo or in OpenOffice itself. I wanted to know about any major
problems before starting so I knew what to expect and when to seek
solutions or when something just could not be done.

While I only played with it a bit in the word processor I found table
navigation was difficult because it wouldn't announce what row or column
I was in or at least what heading I was under. Lots of the other stuff
worked decently. It's free so why not just download it and give it a whirl?

Hi all,
I heard that OpenOffice will work with vo. What limitations are there
to this support? In Windows, OO is all but unuseable, and I wonder if
vo will run into any problems of which I should be aware before I try
it. TIA. Oh, I am not willing to spend money on Pages or any of the
others, especially since I now have my mac set to dual boot with Win7
and I have an MS Office installation I can put on if I need it. Of
course, though, I want to do as much as possible in mac.
Have a great day,
