HiRob and all,
The back up seems to work correctly with the beta, and I too, like the last month, current month and next month feature.
But could you also include the option in the voicing menu, to allow the money talks voice to run while shutting off the screen reader voice. The advantage to this is that I can use window eyes to navigate to the correct icon on the desktop, then start money talks, and if an option was available to do the above, my window eyes would go out while leaving me with the money talks voice. I still prefer the mt voice, 

1) it's the at and t voice, decent quality
and 2), )probably more useful), arrowing through the columns autoreads all the data in the column. Also, I like the speaking pattern where you hear the current column you are on when you up or down arrow, then the balance column and payee/payer column. Makes it nice to quickly peruse your register. If that full access were available with the screen reader, I would likely use the screen reader quite a bit. Don't know if I'd use it exclusively, but surely would do so more than now. I almost always find myself shutting down window eyes after starting money talks.
I know I can navigate to the mt icon without speech, enter mt, and be left with the mt self-voicing voice, but it would be even easier and more certaink, to navigate to the icon on desktop with speech, and have window eyes go out automatically. I can pretty easily keep up with the voice system when looking for cleared transactions via the telephone, and clear them with mt with the self voicing feature going. That's how I clear my transactions rather than using a download file. 

A bit windy, but there you go.

Best,
Steve

You will hear the accellerator hotkeys as you arrow down through the menus
with window eyes.  This is something you don't always hear with the self
voicing, at least with the at & t voicing.  To be clear, some of the
accellerator keys are indicated, some are not with the self voicing.

Not sure the menus would tell me a window-eyes equivalent if I had the
screenreader running instead of self voicing.
Will it tell me how to get better info using window-eyes?
If so, that would be great.
It's probably insert t or something like that<grin>.

   Paul, press F9.  And take a look at the menus, in this case the Say
menu.  Its faster to do this and see what hotkeys are used than to read
the
manual.

Hi, Rob and everyone.

As far as I can tell, the backup seems to be working again.

After installing on windows seven 64 bit, I was presented with a message
that the program might not have installed correctly.

I told it the program had installed correctly and it seems to work.

Don't know if that was because I copied it over the top of my current
version.

Lastly, when launching the program, the build in speech does shut off so
window-eyes can speak.
However, one thing I haven't figured out is that when moving from account 
to
account, window-eyes doesn't tell you which account you are in.

It's very difficult to figure out where you are.

At least the voiced program tells you where you are. Is there a hot key
that
I could press so that window-eyes would let me know which account I am
in?

Thanks.
