Hi. The current version of ms office for mac is not voiceover compatible. You can thank Microsoft.
Go for I work or open office.

I just installed MS office for mac and opened microsoft word to try it out. Whenever i type, VO doesn't recognize it meaning it doesn't speak what i have typed or it doesn't speak the letters as they are being pressed although sighted people can see my typing on the screen. Instead, if i move around with the arrow keys, i am shown the tool bars and whatever else is on the screen for MS word except the text of the document. VO speaks what i type everywhere else but here so i am supposing i might have forgotten to hit some command. Is there a anyway to fix this? thanks again :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
