Victor, OK sounds good. Just one more question. Did your brothers copy of JFW have the $200 remote access upgrade (From Freedom scientific) installed? Frank

First and foremost, since all he wants to do is provide temporary speech on his system before he connects remotely to his computer at home already running a screen reader, then I think it will do in a pinch. Secondly, I think it's a matter of perspective in terms of what Narrator can and cannot do. Obviously, being users of Jaws and Window Eyes, we tend to think of those program's keystrokes before we think of anyone else's keystrokes. I can't count the number of times I've tried to read something with Narrator, only to find I've pressed the say all command, or the insert+B to read the entire window. Smile. I think if we knew what the proper keystrokes were, I think we would have a speech package to rival, if not beat the major competitors of Jaws and Window Eyes. Granted, this may be wishful thinking on my part, but hey, I am allowed to dream, aren't I? In any case, the remote access offered by Windows is very accessible for what he wants to do. I should also note that I actually tried this feature, and, once connected, I was able to start Jaws on my brother's system remotely, and was able to hear the speech come through on my computer from home.
