[Electronics-talk] talking check writers

Steve,
If you do a search for check printing software 2000 on yahoo or google you 
should find the one I use. You might need sighted help the first time you 
open the program to set a couple of things up, but after that you should be 
able to do everything independently. good luck

Drew
