Hi :)
Is there something 'obvious'?  Is your other screen-reader also java-based?  Do you have other java 
stuff on your machine?  Any previous versions of java lurking around?  


If we can update the 

http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq/Java
to expand it to possibly deal with Kevin's and your situations then that would be fantastic.  I 
think people are reading the page and finding it helpful.  Each time i go there it's had another 
30-40 hits.  If it works for most people but is not quite right for a few then that's fine but it 
would be even better if you could help get the page working for more people.  


Err, it has taken me all day to write this so if Stuart has given better advice earlier please 
ignore this email.  I keep getting distracted, sorry.  

Apols and regards from
Tom :)

Hello.
I uninstalled the components in the order in which you suggested.  Using another installed screen 
reader I reinstalled all software in the order suggested and ensured that the a.t. support 
checkbox was checked when installing Libreoffice 3.6.  I also enabled JAB via the control panel 
under accessibility settings but I still find that I have no access with LO 3.6 and NVDA 2012.2.1.

Kevin,

Golly. I hate to keep harping on this.  And I know it must seem like we are asking you to jump 
through hoops.

But as Tom notes the effort is to clear it everything off and start clean from a known state. In 
your latest attempt you've ended up non-functional.

To have a correct outcome, the install order IS important. LibreOffice gets install LAST.

Remove in this order:  

  1.   LibreOffice 
   2.  NVDA 
   3.  Java Access Bridge 
   4.  Java Runtime Environment

Install in this order

    1. Java Runtime Environment
    2. Java Access Bridge
    3. NVDA
    4. LibreOffice

But note this:  with JRE 1.7u7, the Java Access Bridge v2.0.3 is installed automatically and just 
needs to be enabled with a "jabswitch.exe /enable" command.   Only for JRE 1.6 do you still need 
to use the JWin utility to install and configure Java Access Bridge v2.0.2.  

In other words you should no longer use the JWin program with JRE 1.7 greater than update 6. 
Rather, simply enable the built in Java Access Bridge and then install NVDA and finally 
LibreOffice.

Also, during LibreOffice 3.6 installation, on the last page of Installation Wizard configuration 
"Ready to Install the Program" there will be two check boxes 1) "Create a start link on desktop", 
and 2) "Support assistive technology tools"  Check that box and then select the Install button.

The assistive technology checkbox is off by default--and must be checked to enable assistive 
technology in LibreOffice without navigating the Tools -> Options -> Accessibility and Tools -> 
Options Java menus.  

Without the Accessibility "Support assistive technology tools" checked, NVDA will read the outside 
frame elements of LibreOffice-but will not be able to read or navigate text within the components.

Stuart

Hello,

OK I uninstalled Lo, uninstalled the java7 TM update I think it was installed nvda I can't see 
anything that relates to access bridge, because the java7 just downloads it with window's anyway. 
rebooted the PC installed lo, installed the downloaded java.exe 32 bit it is version 7,rebooted 
the PC but before doing so checked that the java switch was checked it was, then reinstalled Nvda 
I used the portable version of nvda this dose not use anything that Java would be needing anyway. 
It's getting late so struggling to keep focused, anyway the result is that I did not get lo 
working oh nearly forgot after rebooting but before installing nvda again I downloaded the jwin 
program ran it and ran the have ferret.exe file as well, but as said nothing what now? thanks in 
advance but I am about to give up If I hear that anyone else has this latest stable version 
running with java7 and the access bridge then I am happy to take instruction on how to fix it, but 
if not
 I think I have reached the end of the road.

I have a feeling it is a problem with lo and u as well as has been said on the Nvda list. but I 
hope to be proved wrong thanks for all your help all who have tried to help.
