I will certainly give it a shot Maureen but my brain is getting very old indeed!!! Smile.

There are 3 letters ascribed to each number starting with the number 2, the exception is 7 and 9 which has 4 letters. It is good exercise for the mind and becomes easy after a while. Get working on it and good luck. Maureen Murray. ----- Original Message ----- From: Eleanor Burke To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 4:53 PM Subject: [vip_students] Sending Text Messages Has anyone worked out an effecient way of doing this, say using the talks on vodafone. I am looking for a quick fix, have never sent text messages but would like to give it a go. I know that one has to hit keys a certain number of times to get each diffeent letter but maybe someone has made out a list like how many times to hit for a b c etc rather than having to think and work it out at each letter as one goes along, like I think for e one has to hit the 2 twice.
