Richard,
I offered the solution of using Jaws 2018, because
my proof of concept is that Jaws 2018 works with older Office where 2019 does
not.
So that was the solution, and FS needs to change
Jaws to work with older versions, which they won't do.
If someone has Jaws 2019, that key should authorize
2018, and if 2018 works for Office 2007, there lies the problem and
solution.

I think you are still missing the point, but Office 2007
was the first version that began using the .docx and xlsx, file
extensions.
You would be better off comparing to Office
2003.
But, either way, no one has answered Judy’s question about
Access or other databases.
I’m not a moderator, so feel free to ignore me. But,
it would be nice if the subject line reflected the content of the
messages.

The question was
about an older version of Access, which is an Office product, so affectively,
the original question is about Office 2007 with Jaws
2019.
My point was that I
use Office 2000, including Excel from that package, and I have to drop back to
an older version of Jaws to make it work.
I suspect that Office
2007 is more like 2000 than later versions of Office, no matter which of the
Office tools involved.
Other responders on
the list don't seem to be responding to the Office 2007 aspect of the original
question.

I’m not sure exactly why Excel was brought into this
thread, but the original question was about Microsoft Access Database.
Yes, Jaws 2019 works fine with Excel, but here is the original question
again.
Subject: access and
jaws
Hi,
I’ve heard that access 2007 is the latest version that
works well with Jaws? Is this true? Is the accessibility problem
in the inputting of data and reading the fields, or in designing your data
base?
How does Access work with NBDA?
Does anyone use a data base that works well with
Jaws? If so, which one?
Thanks much.
Judy
If folks want to debate Excel, please start a new
thread?
I use Jaws 2019 with Excel in Office 2016 at work every
day and have no major issues. I don’t mess around with charts, graphs, et
cetera, just routine data entry, and it works fine.

I am sorry, Glen, but your statement that Jaws 2019
does not work with Excel is absolutely incorrect. I virtually live in
Excel when I am working and I haven’t used anything but Jaws 2019 since it
came out, in fact, well before then since I am on the Jaws Beta
list.
You might need to
keep an older copy of Jaws installed for that
program.
I still use
Office 2000, because it does all I need it to do, and Jaws 2019 does not
work with Excel, but earlier versions do.
