The student is a Jaws user but the stats software being used is PASW version 18 (formerly known as SPSS).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Our AT Lab has Jaws version 12 and PASW v18 and in testing them together I found that Jaws isn’t usable with PASW since it seems to be programmed in Java. I thought I found a solution for this online where you create a Java Access Bridge<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>(???) in Jaws but it doesn’t seem to work with Jaws v12. I tried statistical software called ‘R’, but it too doesn’t seem to work well with Jaws.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>So my question is has anyone come across this sort of situation before?
