Thanks Andrew, That does sound like the sort of thing. Do you have any names or web sites?

These are really cheap (compairred to a screen reader proper), and should be relatively easily available.

A screen reader like Window-eyes would not really be appropriate for her to use. She was telling me today that on some applications she really needs to know what colour a field on the screen is , but cannot discriminate differences in some cases. Does anyone know how this could be handled? Thanks in advance. Regards, John.
