Rob,
Will be looking forward for the fix on the recurring Jan. 4, 2010 date
issue. Thanks so much.
Also, Margaret, I was reading your message about the speech and wonder if
the AT&T Mike voice which comes with the cd would help.I wasn't clear if you
had that voice.
Rob, would having a speak and spell type option, let's say using the F7 key
help here? For instance, while viewing a register, regardless of what
column one is in, one could press the F7 key to read the column's
information, press it a second time quickly to read it letter by letter, and
a third quick press would read it phonetically. Of course, punctuation and
spaces would be handled as well. I don't know if it would be an easy
implementation, or even feasible, but it's a thought.
Right now, a person could use their own speech synthesizer and screen reader
program, making sure to turn off the MT speech with the F12 key. They could
use their equivalent of window eye's "speak summary" hot key, which is ctrl
plus shift plus the letter S as in Sam, to read the contents of a given
column. Multiple presses of that key combination functions as a speak and
spell feature.. Only problem with that solution would be the user would
likely have to choose a small font and increase the width of the column as
much as possible to put the whole content of a given column into visual
focus. This may vary from column to column.
Having this feature built into Money Talks might solve that issue.
Any notions?
TIA,
Steve
