I realize this isn't what is being sought, but if your client can use the Web, I would recommend an online dictionary such as dictionary.com (a bunch of dictionaryies) or the unabridged www.m-w.com. For a niminal fee, you get the latest, up-to-date dictionaries plus a plethora of other features. The currentness (new word) alone, in my opinion, makes this option preferable. bruce On Tue, 18 Dec 2007 15:08:23 -0600, "Ray Campbell" <ray.campbell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> said: > Hello All: > > I received a call from someone that runs JAWS and is looking for an > accessible dictionary that he can install on his computer.
