Chad, I too have a no vision user. He uses the client and either JAWS or Window Eyes.
I created a view of the Incident form just for him & did things like set the tab order to his preference. Email me off list & we can share.

We hope to gain valuable lessons in making our application more navigable. I am focusing on access via the Mid-Tier, as this seems to be where JAWS provides the best navigation tricks. This task is quite an experience as I read BMC documentation, goto JAWS and struggle with what really works. I have found a few deficiencies, but am in no way hitting all aspects of our application. I have found the document 'Designing BMC Remedy applications for Section 508 compliance.pdf' quite valuable and at times confusing. If anyone has blazed this path before me and generated helpful tips in navigating objects like the Results List, Tables and Menu Lists, would you be willing to share? I haven't approached BMC yet concerning issues I found; that generally never goes well ;) Thanks for your time.
