N1MM+ is free, and supports more than 200 contests.  In the contest club 
I am in, Potomac Valley Radio Club, I think a lot more people are using it 
than AC Log, even though the developer is here in Maryland.  Of the people 
who operated in the WRTC (World Radiosport Team Championships) last summer, 
a majority were using Wintest, with N1MM somewhat behind.  Nobody has had 
the time to work with Wintest for accessibility, although David used it in a 
high-speed operation last summer.
K4LTA, an active blind contester and DXer from Tennessee uses TR4Win, the 
successor of TR for DOS.
From what I have read on this list, Scott Davis, N3FJP, has probably done 
the most to produce a blind-friendly logging program.
Fortunately there are many ways to skin a cat, and some of us enjoy figuring 
out how far we can go with off-the-shelf software.  That's the beauty of ham 
radio..
For your second question, if you can get into the column at all, I would try 
the context menu key and see if it gives you an option you can use.  Good 
programs have a lot of context-menu options which change depending on the 
location of your cursor or mouse pointer, and some of these options are 
quite hard to find in the menu system or help files.

I have two questions:

1. Why are any of you using the N1MM software as opposed to the N3FJP
software? Is it simply a matter that some people like Elecraft and others
like Kenwood, or is there more to it than simply brand preference?

2. I am using Scott's AC Log Program, N3FJP, and when I plug the
information into a xlsx spreadsheet, the date/time column data does not show
up; I was told it is because the column is too narrow, and if I make the
column for this data wider, it will show up just fine. I do not use the xlsx
spreadsheet program enough to remember how to make the column wider. Can
someone here tell me how to do this? Also, related to this, has anyone else
here run into this same problem, and if so, does making the column wider fix
it?
