Hi Henry, I've generally used Excel from Office 2003 and it works well with Windows 7. I found that, for a small charity, having a debit and credit column, a running balance and columns totalling the different categories of expenditure was sufficient for the simple preparation of end of year accounts. If you need to use an accountant to file accounts with the Charity Commission or companies House, they can easily lift any data from the spreadsheet to insert it into any specialist lay-out which may be required. There's also MoneyTalks from America, but I didn't find that the lay-out was so easy for sighted people to work with and the data was harder to manipulate if that was required.

Good Morning everyone Please could someone advise on which is a suitable data base to be used with either Jaws or NVDA to run on a Windows 7 home premium platform. The data base is for a small local voluntary society for the blind, and if anyone has experience with data bases, any general advice will be most helpful. best wishes Henry ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
