for those with problems using a keyboard on a pc. I use the on-screen keyboard.

On my pc I clicked :-

start

all programs

accessories

accessibility

on-screen keyboard.

I can only use the mouse and 1 finger at the moment. if you use the minimize, not close function, it should stay on your toolbar for future use.

regards,

sandra

Another option is 'Dragon Naturally Speaking' - a speech-to-text although it takes a while to get the best out of it.

I've tried a speech-to-text programme, too - it's great if you have plenty of time to programme it to your voice and speech patterns, but can get really frustrating when you first use it!

I tried one about 15+ years ago but, because my voice is so hoarse, it couldn't understand me. I coughed and it typed "I've had enough" !!!
