Hi  Joice,
Do you need to be a division member for these chat sessions? If not,  I'll 
come and invite some friends too. Can you be a minor and  participate?
I'm definitely one to like the idea of a tech chat! Anything  for that 
matter, but as computer work with the Office suite is a strong  point, I'm 
wondering what things I can do with it.

I want to know  if you can create something like greeting cards with 
Powerpoint or Word?  And labels? Good topic, I do not know how to do that 
except for envelope  labeling. But can you make fancy card labels? I don't 
know. I've always  written mine by hand; I have enough vision to see it 
sort 
of. I use my  finger as a guide to write names.
Along these lines, is there anything  accessible for publishing? I know 
Microsoft publisher is not accessible.  is there an equivalent accessible 
product?

One thing that bothers  me is that graphic design programs are not even 
partly accessible. As  someone with some vision and one using a screen 
reader, I see all these  cool designs but cannot make them. I think 
something 
like Microsoft  publisher or adobe photo shop could be accessible to some 
extent; they  would just have to add color descriptions to some of the 
icons 
and use a  ribbon or menu structure. it could be partly accessible if they 
cared to  make it so.

Anyway, I'll join the chats if I'm able to; just let me  know the time 
mondays..

We had designated one Monday out of the month for Tech  Chats.  What  you
have asked for will come under that  topic.

In the past we have had IPhone chats, Ap chats, chats on  computer stuf, so
this would be great.  Now do we have folks out there  that uses Word to do
labels or any other software.

Due to a lack of  running out of ideas for chats and folks not showing up
for the chats I  booked some classes in on Monday Nights.  We have 2 Monday
Night Chats  planned in Jan and 1 in Feb.  So we need folks to share  their
knowledge and experience and come to these chats to learn, teach and  share
this  information.

Has anyone printed say a couple of  labels at a time?  Do you need to  print
a entire sheet  out?  What have you used labels for?  Where do  you get  
your
labels?

Don't answer these questions here on the list, but  these are some of the
things  we would like to hear more  about.
