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

This May be helpful. At our Headway group, for people with general 'brain injury' problems, we have quite a lot of 'helpful or 'adaptive' software; 'Dragon' that speaks what is typed, keybooards that are three different colours, and serveral different typs of mouse.

A lot of the companies, that make these 'adaptions' often allow a 'Trial Period', for prospective buyers. Why not ask you never know!

Good luck anyway

Depending on your speech, have you tried a voice interface - speech rcognition programme?

I did about 15+ years ago. I was running thru the set-up, but my voice is too hoarse. I coughed and on the screen it interpretted as "I've had enough" which indeed was true!
