Hi:  Well, you're not the first with these problems, unfortunately.  Several
of us have been in contact with Intuit to make their software more
accessible, but to no avail.
I have tried using the Interview method with TurboTax, which is what I
prefer, but they've used titmap images instead of plain text and it makes it
impossible to read.
I suggest you send your concerns to the following address and let Intuit
know you're another blind person who would like to have equal access to
their products.

Good Luck!  We're going to keep trying.  I'm hoping H.J. is attempting to
work with Intuit as well.  They have all the information with which to
contact them.
Michael

Subject:        JFW and turbotax

Well, I took the plunge and bought a copy of Turbotax to do my return
with this year for the first time in my life, but it doesn't work quite
well enough with JFW.  It won't read the field headings when you push the
tab key even though it does cycle through the controls on the worksheets.
Also, if you look around with the jaws cursor you can't get into the
worksheets.

Does anyone have some scripts etc. that they have written for Turbotax,
or some suggestions as to steps I might take to get the program to work.
This would really be worth doing for blind taxpayers and actually it's
almost working, so it probably just needs a little tweaking.

Thanks in advance.
