Hi, Thanks for your help. I am not sure what version I have over here as I only get update and upgrade option, (I will try it later to see if I can upgrade). However, currently, I can open-up the document, read it line by line, letter by letter, but, not word by word. Changing curser mode over to letters, words or original makes no difference. I still cannot move word by word to read the document. Is there a talks shortcut to move word by word? ------------------- Thank you.

You will find this by Opening Quick Office and going to Options and About. Select About and you should get the version. If you do not get About you should get an Option Updates and Upgrades. You may be luckey and get a free upgrade. Anyway all that said, try this out in your current version of Word. Open your document. Now Talks will not read the list of your documents within Quick Office but if you have a Word document on your memory card you will be able to locate it using Talks. Open it' then go to Options and select Edit. You will then be able to go down the document line by line or character by character, or word by word. Reading depends on the cursor position or mode. There are 3 modes, character, word and original. These 3 positions are obtained by using a toggle Talks key and long press of number 2 key on the keypad, not to be confused with soft key 2. -original message- Subject: [talks-uk] Reading documents From: "Ali" <alpot77@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 23/08/2011 11:27 am Hi all, I have just transferred a document over to my e5 in doc.
