Hi Eleanor,
The Talks manual is a good describer of how to send texts as well, although
others on this list, Flor in particular, have described the process just as
well!
If you do want the manual though, feel free to contact me off list and I'll
send it along.
Stuart.

Thank you very much flor, that was a good starter tutorial and have made me
feel positive about starting. As you say it is only with practice.
