I have a new computer running Windows 7 Home Premium. I have been told by several people that Office 2003 will work with Windows 7. I don't want to lose Office 2003, as it has some tools such as a document scanner which I have been told are not available in later versions of Office.
When I open Outlook, cursoring up and down gives no speech. I know I have messages, as insert control S tells me how many. I am having to press enter to open each message, control shift T to tell me the subject, and then delete or reply as necessary. Previously on my old computer I could run up and down messages and press the delete key if the subject was not of interest to me. Another thing that happens is that after I have dealt with a few messages, Outlook throws me out, and control shift T says no active program, so I have to alt tab back to Outlook. I am also having difficulty editing messages when typing, as backspace does not speak the letter or punctuation mark I am deleting. I have gone to factory settings, and found that Office 2003 set was not installed, so I installed it, but it has not made any difference. Window-Eyes does say the right set file is active and associated. I notice in factory settings that there is Office XP, and I wonder whether this would work better. I have spent a lot of time going through Window-Eyes settings, trying different things, but to no avail. I have also read five braille volumes of Windows 7 Explained, and have tried various options in Control panel and elsewhere. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
