I've seen this question posted before, but I've not seen any answers. I
also didn't get answers from Google.

Does anyone know about accessibility (or lack thereof) with Crystal
Reports XI
<http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/default.asp>;?
I didn't see anything on their website specifically addressing it so I'm
gathering it's not been a priority for them, but I've got a client
asking about it and I'd like to be able to give them a concrete answer
rather than a gut feeling.

Thanks
Joelle Tegwen

For the record:
I did a little research and talked to some people in house and they had
terrible luck with Crystal Reports and found it to be very inaccessible.

Hope this helps someone else

Before I got involved with accessibility I had a job where I used
Crystal Reports for data mining and analysis. As arcane as it was then
(2000-2003), I can't imagine it's at all accessible at the user
interface level, nor can I easily imagine its output could be made
accessible, at least not without the use of add-on modules of spells and
potions.
