Configuring the Universal Access Java Applet

To use the Universal Access Java applet shortcuts you only need:

• JDK 1.3

To use assistive technology, such as Jaws, you need to contact your System Administrator to configure your computer system. Installing JDK 1.3 will not be sufficient.

Activating the Universal Access Java Applet

Note: It is not necessary to activate the Universal Access Java applet to view and refresh reports.

The Universal Access Java applet, based on the Light Java applet, needs to be activated before you can use the accessibility features. Your system administrator makes the Universal Access Java applet available during installation.

To activate the Universal Access Java applet:

1. Select Options, Create and Edit Documents.
2. Select Universal Access Java applet, then click Apply All Changes.

Note: In order to use the Universal Access Java applet, you must have JDK 1.3 installed. If it is not, a page with a link to Sun web page appears. You can continue with the JDK 1.3 download or cancel the process.

Warning: This version of JDK may affect other applications. Contact your system administrator before proceeding with the download.
