I'm a totally blind programmer who would like to learn .net.It appears that the Visual Studio express editions are not accessible since the scripts that come with Jaws for Windows, the screen reading software I use, requires the VS object model to make Visual Studio accessible. This is not available in the express editions, so the scripts may partially work or not work at all.None of the options mentioned in this question apply to me and I don't want to spend $500 or more to buy Visual Studio professional when I may never use it for a job.If I take the time to try out the express versions and run into issues is there any way to contact Microsoft without my questions/feedback being lost in a black hole?
Using Visual Studio with a screen reader without paying for an expensive edition

Visual Studio community edition appears to provide access to the VS object model. I was able to create a project and do basic code editing with no issues. I've just started but it looks like this solves my issue.
