Good evening Scott,

My speculation is that Microsoft Office 2011 will not be accessible with VoiceOver.

I cannot imagine that Office was developed with native Cocoa user interface components. As a matter of fact for some user interface components (the ribbon) Microsoft would have to create their own custom classes. I cannot imagine that Microsoft would have put the time into ensuring that these classes were accessible.

I hope to be shown to be wrong.

HTH,
Everett

hi all

I have just read on the mac world website that microsoft has announced
the launch of office for mac 2011. Could this be the answer to our
prayers by finally being accessible to voiceover users? Does anyone
have the inside line on this?

Keep your fingers crossed.

Scott
