Dave...
Gosh, Ted! That was a month ago. I don't use MS-Access so I can't check on

that for you. Why not download the beta (it's already in the 3rd version) and try it out for yourself? When I wrote this message a month ago I was still on XP Pro. Now I'm on Windows 7 32-bit and a new Latitude E6520. JAWS 13 continues to be more solid than JAWS 12, so I'm continuing to believe that only odd-numbered versions of JAWS are worth owning.

Subject: Re: Jaws13.0 beta Just to let you all know, Excel 2007 now works with JAWS 13. And that was my biggest complaint. They did take my favorite keystrokes for reading top 4 and leftmost 4 cells and give them over to the new Insert+Shift, T table navigation set with a completely unimaginative set of Alt+1 through 8 keys, so I added my own keystrokes to these and fixed that problem. So far JAWS 13 is behaving no worse than JAWS 12 in general situations overall, and perhaps more responsive. Again bear in mind that I'm still using XP Pro and the Office 2007 suite. The Convenient OCR feature is pretty good, although I haven't tried too many examples of it. Of course ResearchIt is broken for some of the sites, but that's not a JAWS issue. Note that I copied over my JAWS 12 Place Markers, Personalized Settings, and JAWS dictionary files. I *did not* use the merge feature. And I definitely modified the OCR voice to something less drastic. Pretty good so far, right out of the box. I think my theory of odd-numbered versions of JAWS being the best is holding up.
