I believe there is an error in what you say.  When I spoke to Discover 508, 
they said they would have to install it on your employer's SharePoint server 
space at the Enterprise level and there it could be done so for any number of 
licenses including targeted to a specific individual. I recall it's not a 
product to be installed on individual workstation computers on your desk and if 
that is true, I think the cost is astronomical.

Hi,

Our agency is moving to using SharePoint.  We have purchased Discovery 508.  
This software installed on computers for staff using JAWS will change the 
interface to make it easier for screen readers. HTH

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 15 and Microsoft Sharepoint.

Hi all,
I never post here, but I joined this list a long time ago. I have a question. 
I'm testing the accessibility of a web site on Microsoft Share Point. I know it 
isn't completely accessible, but I wanted to know if there was anything I could 
do to accurately test it for accessibility using Jaws 15. I test for 
accessibility according to the standards listed in section 508 of the Federal 
Rehabilitation act.
I look forward to any suggestions/recommendations you can provide.
Thank you,
Tara

requires medical treatment. The SC Commission for the Blind encourages everyone
