Hi Friends,
Two weeks ago I installed WordPerfect X5 trial on my computer (win7 and
jaws11) and I found out that jaws11 doesn't support WP X5 almost at all.
It doesn't recognize reveal codes, doesn't recognize Cyrillic letters
when you make a overstrike, doesn't speak styles and page numbers,
This topic has probably been discussed in the past, but I can't find an
answer so I'm asking again. Is there an accessible calendar or agenda that
can be used with jaws? I need to keep track of appointments. I am using jaws
11 and Vista.
Any help would be appreciated, and I apologize if this
Try the free calendar program that is bundled with the WebbIE suite of
programs. It is easy to use and was designed to work with screen readers.

Hi to all!
I don't know is it happening with other speech synthesizers but I use one
which I cannot detect as Sapi 4 under Windows 7 64-bit system. It works as
Sapi 5 but it works badly. Is there some Sapi 4 driver or something I can
install onto 64-bit system to get this synth running?
Thanks
Hi Beverly,
Why not use a simple text file?
I have already made one up for 2011, and I believe that David has posted it
to the website.

Hi. You can also use magic calendar. Its free of charge and can be
downloaded from:

also, you could use sunbird, it works pretty well as well as the webie
calendar, all these alternatives are free!

Good morning,
My husband bought me a Toshiba netbook. There seems to be a lot of different
software loaded on this machine and Jaws 12 does not want to read some of
the dialogue boxes to me. He seems to run sluggish at times and times he
does not talk at all. Any suggestions. Someone mentioned

I can't speak to the accessibility of any of the programs you listed but the
first thing that comes to mind is you need to check and see how many of them
or any other programs are running at startup. If even 25% of those that you

Over the years, FS have updated older jaws versions several times,
usually with bug fixes or security updates.
with all that is sometimes said against FS, this is one thing to their credit.
