Thanks to the therapist who suggested Therapy Notes. I'm sorry that my 
message got so garbled in the translation.


Listers could help me in a big way because I have an interview for a new 
job and would like to know which software types work well with JAWS and 
which do not. That way, when I ask about software the agency uses, I 
could have a good idea if I might want to take the position should it be 
offered to me.


Also, if anyone does needd to use Clinicians Desk Top in the future, I 
can make available a CD that, when installed, would give you a menu with 
some of the most-used applications. The software does not work at all 
with JAWS because none of the items are labeled or can be found by using 
the tab key or even a JAWS find. MY menu has keystrokes used to pull it 
up and to put the cursor on the desired item. It is, however, very, very 
slow. Just pulling up a case note template takes about four minutes.


Thanks for your quick response. Please continue to share your ideas.
