Hi Sara,
    Thank you for joining the list and hearing the stories of the blind Mac 
users.  Office is undoubtedly an important productivity application for many 
people.  I have three current clients that could benefit from accessibility to 
Office, and I sincerely hope that Microsoft intends to rectify the current 
accessibility issues with Office for the Mac.  Please forgive my skepticism as 
I am still scratching my head over how this was allowed to occur in the first 
place, since Office was rewritten in Coco, but as I said, I truly hope there is 
a serious and concerted effort to make Office completely accessible with 
VoiceOver in the very near future.

Thanks again

     

Take Care
