DocReader worked fine in Word 97 for both versions 7.01 and 7.02 in Windows 98 and NT. A few problems occurred with Excel 97. In version 7.01 DocReader would not read the first number that was typed, but it did read all subsequent numbers. In version 7.02 the problem occurs only if the user types in data too quickly. An improvement in version 7.02 is that it will automatically speak the contents of a cell when the cursor is moved to the cell. DocReader also did not read the toolbar in both versions. It was very hard to keep track of information because the cell, row, and data numbers were read as if they were right next to each other in DocReader display mode.
