Hi Steve.
Thanks for that. I managed to follow your instructions and saved these
within Windoweyes. Strangely, other list members where telling me that I
could only make this change if I was sending and reading HTML and not Plain
Text. I was reluctant to change to HTML as many Access.UK members
complained that I was sending black letters on a black background. Glad to
get it sorted anyway. Thanks.
Steve, I went and bought the Zoom recorder! I love the feel of it and the
recording quality is fantastic. The noise that Neal refers to is only
evident when recording with batteries and on silence or near silence.
However, if there is any background noises about, you cannot hear it. Okay,
I do wish that it was not there, but there is nothing we can do about it,
other than not purchase the item. Not attempted a podcast yet as I'm still
getting used to the buttons, but it is very directional and very clear.
I'll let you know more about it when I know myself. Thanks again for your
advice.
Andy
