If you still have a copy of JAWS, it should work.  I mean, if you're really 
serious about development, then you should look into the pro version anyway.  
VS 2010 has no standard version anymore.  They took that one off.  I just 
switch to JAWS when I want to use Vs 2010.  But it would be nice for WE to have 
support for it, but I think that until GW Micro decided to make strides to 
support WPF fully, that's not going to happen.

Hi: Visual Studio Express does not expose the COM interface unless you buy the 
Professional Version. That means no add-ins for the Express nor the Standard 
Versions as far as I can tell.
I ran Jamal's HarvestWindow app and it looks like the MSAA stuff is still there 
and, if GW has done it all, the UIA stuff should be exposed through their MSAA 
and other objects from what I understand.
I don't know about scripting the WPF objects which are what is used in all the 
new Microsoft Software and in Visual Studio in particular.
Has anyone used a WE Script to do some scripting of the Visual Studio 
environment and especially the Editors and Designers?
What about the WPF stuff?
What about interacting with the DOM controls which are actually WPF in nature 
if I understand what I've read about the new Visual Studio?
I am trying to find out if vb.net and vwd 2010 can be scripted without using 
add-ins as is being done for the VS Professional level, really expensive, 
software.
Well, that's it. Without add-ins it may be a real mess to try and script that 
battleship but it is what it is.
Some day my old machine will have to be replaced and I will be forced into 
windows 7 or 8 and likely have to install and use the newer Microsoft 
development software so I am starting to look at what I may have to do to 
reduce my learning curve when that happens.
