[Athen] Assistive technology plug-ins for Microsoft Word?

[Nettie Fischer]

Shelley,

I am using Word 07 and downloaded the WordTalk software but, the
instructions say that I should fing an Add-In tag on the ribbon menu but
cannot locate it.  Please and thanks on how I can make the word talk a
functional tool .
