[Blindmath] Using SPSS with JAWS?

[Justin Young]

Hi Jonathon & all,

Yes Its on my own PC and its verison 22 which I downloaded through a
site for Graduate Student work.  Since I'm so unfamiliar with the
program I wanted to reach out to others like yourself who have used it
along with JAWS.

Thanks for the start of the discussion to come!
