with the PIBE-Division listserv. A question: Is there any way to make the comment
submission process on your blog less conplicated for those of us who are blind?
I have no difficulty deciphering the audio capcha alternative; however, locating
the spot at which to enter the numbers I hear, and then submitting the text I've
written, is next to impossible. I had several comments to your threads, but after
four attempts with the alternate capcha, I finally gave up.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><font size=4 color=black
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>Are you one
handed and wish you could type faster? Are you missing your hands or arms? Are
your hands shaky and it is difficult to type? If you have any difficulty typing
at all, this may be a solution for you.<br>
<br>
Office 2003 does have a speech recognition built into it to use. You speak and
the computer types out what you are saying.<br>
<br>
However, Windows 7 has taken a leap in speech recognition abilities. By
speaking to your computer, you can get it to open any menu and go anywhere. You
can dictate letters, do your homework and print it off or go into the Internet
and email it. You can surf on the Internet and scroll through pages of
information. With a quick "Start Listening”, the computer listens to your
voice and commands. With a "Stop Listening”, the computer stops listening.<br>
<br>
If you are using talking software, you will need assistance in setting up the
program as nothing else can be talking while you are training the program. Once
the computer gets to know your voice, you can control it anyway you need. If
you want to dictate in Word, you will need to limit JAWS ability to talk until
you want him to, just a quick hit of the CTRL key is enough to control him. You
begin talking and a dialog box opens where you say all your sentences. Once you
finish dictating, you say "insert" and the text is inserted into the
document, you can make corrections as needed with F7 to spell check with Jaws. <br>
