No doubt, Kurzweil is a more current product and its recognition engines are more current. Openbook hasn't updated in it seems forever.

Ah, This I understand. The solution her issue is there nonetheless. Get her money back and invest in a better product if in fact openbook is behaving in this way as a norm.On Apr 21, 2007, at 5:14 PM, Glenda Born wrote:Kurzweil isn't going to assist her with openbook. Openbook and Kurzweil are competing products. I think she's asking for help with openbook.Glenda At 11:49 AM 4/21/2007, you wrote:kurzweiledu.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Laura Eaves" <<mailto:leaves1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>leaves1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <<mailto:jawslite@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>jawslite@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; "Multiple recipients of NFBnet GUI-TALK Mailing List" <<mailto:gui-talk@xxxxxxxxxx>gui-talk@xxxxxxxxxx>; "guispeak" <<mailto:guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Sent: Saturday, April 21, 2007 8:58 AM Subject: [guispeak] OpenBook Hello all -- I just purchased the latest version of OpenBook and installed it. I did not install connect out loud or realspeak as I have jaws8. But I ran the program and it immediaitely started scanning and I couldn't stop it. Furthermore, it doesn't behave like jaws in that I can't access menus or help of any kind. I am stumped as to how to work this thing. There is a readme that hasn't been updated since 2004 and gives no directions on how to use it. There is a "Getting Started" audio CD that I started listening to, but it is full of stuff like registering the product and sounds as old as the readme -- it even refers to using the floppy authorization cd. I suppose I should have listened to the whole thing bu after 10 minutes with only limited information, I turned it off. That appears to be the only documentation there is for this thing. Am I missing something? Perhaps there was a document that got put away somewhere but I don't remember one. Can anyone point me to a good help file for OpenBook? Well, at least I know my scanner is working...*smile* TIA --le ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx g with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx g with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe]** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:-** [<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq>mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq<mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to** <mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
