[gui-talk] Many reasons to switch to Office2007

I do not work for GW Micro but just received a copy of office 2007 at work
and find that Window-Eyes 6.0 does work quite well with it.

Good afternoon everyone,

Please keep in mind that Clarence works for GWMicro and being so will
promote their products over other screen readers. After all that's what they
pay him to do. Perhaps those who have tried Office 2007 with Jaws should
weigh in with their feedback and suggestions. We're still using Office XP
ourselves and will most likely upgrade to Office 2003 before making the jump
to Office 2007.

Not at all.  That should be their choice.  I just can't speak for how
it will or won't work with Jaws. I was only speaking of Window-Eyes.
