Oo-er Karen! How would you go about doing that? Detailed instructions please, off list if people would prefer that. Sorry to appear so frit, but this is the man who's only just discovered how great the calendar on my phone is with Talks. So any help here much appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Karen Burgess Sent: 19 September 2005 15:55 To: talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Navigating by word. hi Ian in my experience transferring talks via bluetooth is by far the easiest method.

For people like me who're a bit wussy about this sort of thing, does USB connectivity mean it's now easier to upgrade the Talks yourself? I remember spending a good hour and a half trying and failing to get Talks on to a phone via infra red with a very experienced VI computer user and Talks user. In my research on the subject, I've also come across other people who've had similar problems. -----Original Message----- From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Karen Burgess Sent: 19 September 2005 14:55 To: talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Navigating by word. Hi Ian try as Mark suggested although you don't have the latest version of talks so won't have all the latest features available to you. You can put the latest version on your phone of course.

Hi Karen, On my 6630 it's V1.99.8. does that mean I'm stuck with navigating by character? Cheers now.

Hi Ian think the advance tab has only been added in recent versions of talks, what version do you have there? kaz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ian Macrae" <ian.macrae@xxxxxxxxx> To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 19, 2005 2:31 PM Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Navigating by word. Hi Karen, Okay, tried going into the Talks settings menu with Talks key and star but pressing the right side of the central key on my 6630 didn't do anything. There doesn't seem to be an advanced tab in my menu. Any further suggestions gratefully received. Cheers now.

HI ian and Tink yes, you can alter talks so that you can navigate text by words and not letters. if you go in to your talks menue, go to the advanced tab by pressing your right arrow and cursor down you will come to cursor mode, just choose words. hope this helps. kaz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tink Watson" <tink@xxxxxxxxxx> To: "Talks UK" <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 19, 2005 1:06 PM Subject: [talks-uk] Navigating by word. > Afternoon all, > > Thanks to Graham for setting up this list! > > Is it possible to navigate through texts by word, rather than > letter can anyone tell me? > > Thanks, > Tink. > -- > http://www.tink.co.uk/ > > http://www.bbc.co.uk/ This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
