Hi Derek. I am no longer teaching, nor am I using NVDA or Open Office.
Thx, Albert

Subject: Re: [VICUG-L] Open Office and JAWS or System Access
Open Office is not accessible with NVDA, nor ZoomText for that matter.
Thanks for suggesting Symphony. I had not heard of it, but will check it
out.
Albert, are you using NVDA in the classroom now? You probably know this,
but you can get free copies of MS Office for classroom use. I'd prefer to
see Open Office or some other free and/or open source office solution, but
haven't found one yet.
Also, are you teaching Twitter or any other social media channels?
I'd be interested in discussing further if you're interested.
Derek
