Hi Jerry,

Do you have an URL from where I can buy it? Also, can I do a word search in the dictionary?

with a hot key, that's easy to get used to. It's among "popular
applications with Jaws" in the Jaws help menu and costs about $30. The
advertising on online dictionary was driving me nuts.

Hi all,

Does any one know of any accessible dictionaries? I have tried the
Houghton Mifflin eReference from www.dictionary.com. The navigation
is a pain since there seems to have been usage of controls in very
nonstandard ways.

Is there any dictionary that is more accessible? Wordweb is out since
it is not comprehensive.
