Hi Chris,

Yes, that is fine, but when I do it with all three, I get in trouble.  I can
have Hal and Jaws, and Hal and Window-Eyes, but if I have all three, JAWS
and Window-Eyes get screwed, until I uninstall Hal.  I hate Dolphin's
flavour of DCM.

All the best

Thanks Steve. However, I've managed to have demo versions of both Hal and
Window-Eyes on the same machine, and has experienced no issues.
However thanks for the observations.
