chris,
do you use the ribbon with the PC cursor, or the JAWS cursor? I like
to cruise around the thing when I need something, but I'm still
fighting the tabs when I can't remember where to look.

What's wrong with the 2007 ribbon being frustrating? What parts of
it are you having issues with? Let us help you, as I use it for
work every day practically, and absolutely swear by the ribbon! I
honestly dono how I lived without it!
Chris.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Who Needs JAWS 12 Anyway?
One of the new features mentioned in the JAWS 12 preview I posted
yesterday is a "virtual ribbon" option that will emulate the
classic menus in Office 2003 while retaining the ribbon menu
structure everyone loves to hate. For those of you who do not plan
to upgrade to JAWS 12, I just discovered a great little app called
Ubit Menu that adds the classic Office 2003 menus to the Office
2007/10 ribbon menu. Once you download and install this app, you
bring up the ribbon menu by pressing Alt, right arrow to the Menu
tab and hit Enter. Then you can tab and shift tab through the
various classic 2003 menu options for Word, Excel and Power
Point. It works well with JAWS 9, and does not disrupt the
existing ribbon menu structure in any way. So you can have your
cake and eat it too; classic Office 2003 menus, or the newer and
more frustrating Office 2007/10 ribbon menus. So who needs JAWS 12
anyway? Besides, Ubit Menu is availabel now, so you don't have to
wait for JAWS 12 to be released.
