Hi Eleanor,

It was one I knew how to do already but somebody did post it as a suggestion 
when I mailed with my query.  if you go into the contact, press key one and on 
the list of options here is edit.  If you select this it will allow you to 
scroll through the items character by character.

  Well I am intreagued Roslyn as to why you are unable to do it.  How do you do

    Hi Eleanor,

    Sorry I'm not on Skype.  It's not that important though.  I just can't 
figure out what happened.

      Roslyn I wonder if someone at NCBI, maybe the person who deals with 
Talks, could give you a call and try and resolve this issue.  I know a lady in 
Northern Ireland who might help talk yhou through some things but the problem 
might be cost of telephone calls.  Are you on Skype?  Some of the people on the 
Talks list are on Skype and might be prepared to talk you through it.

        Hi Eleanor,

        Not sure.  This is the most problematic thing I've had to deal with on 
my phone.  I've gotten resolutions to all my other problems via this list.  
There is another way I can do what I'm trying to do.  I just can't figure out 
why this way won't work anymore when it used to.

        I haven't resolved this yet.  I live in Portarlington.  There is a 
phone shop here but it is not one of the bigger ones and I don't think they are 
particularly experienced with talks.

            Hi Eleanor,

            I haven't resolved the problem yet.  Yeah I have it set to 
character.

              If you are holding yhour phone facing you with the numbers in a 
vertical or portrait position, screen rotation turns the text on the screen to 
landscape.  If that is the case you would probably want to turn your phone on 
its side but that would be awkward for using the keypad.  However if it is 
turned off, particularly for visually impaired users it stops Talks getting 
somewhat confused at times.  I just thought that might have been another idea 
to try and resolve your problem.  Did you manage to resolve it roslyn?  Did you 
ensure that you had not reverted the cursor to original mode and that it was on 
character so that you could move across the contacts fields.  I trust you know 
how to do this.  You press Talks key and then hold down the number two for a 
few seconds.  It will say somethng like Word.  If you do not want word at a 
time press Talks key again and long press number 2 on the keypad and it will 
say either original or character.  There are the 3 positions.  You want 
character.  Let me know if you are still stuck and we can try and think of 
something else.

                Hi Eleanor,

                Thanks for this.  I couldn't find the exact setting on my 
phone.  What does screen rotation do?

                  hi Joan-Anne I am wondering if you ever resoved your problem 
re contacts.  In case not please try this also.

                  Go to the menu, Tools, Settings, General, Display, then down 
to Screen Rotation.  You will probably find this is set to auto. Press the 
square joypad to change it, and turn it off.  Back out of the settings.



                  Note on my N96 I had to go from General to Profiles to 
display but I am sure you will be able to work around this on your particular 
model of phone Joan-Anne.

                   

                  Eleanor
