Hi Steve, You are the top man. Many thanks for a great explanation. Knowing that now makes it a very useful feature. Kindest Regards, Ibby. _____ From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Nutt Sent: 02 December 2006 09:48 To: talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [talks-uk] Re: TALKS saying numerals Hi Ibby, You can't turn that off. The number it gives you is the number of characters you are allowed to type in a text message. The limit is 160. If you exceed 160 characters, your text will be sent as two separate texts, which would cost you more money, so we figured that Talks ought to tell you how many characters you have remaining. To prove this, go into a text and hold down your hash key. You will hear the number as 160. Type three characters into a text and do it again. Youwill hear it reduce to 157. So sorry, you can't turn it off, but I thought I should explain to you the purpose of it, since many Talks users don't realise there is a limit on a single message, which is limited by the SMS, Short Message Service, note the word short.

What I would most like it to say is just Upper or lower case or all capitals. Please can anyone advise what changes I need to make in TALKS to make it talk the way I want it to.
