certainly have
thank you
I also use a program called balabolka
this converts text files to wav and mp3
it works on pdf files.
this means I can listen to all the document via v l c rather than keep
pressing the down-arrow key

Sorry it has taken this long to write back to you Mike, but I have
literally
been away from my computer for a day. Your steps did the trick! I am now
able to get back in there and read .PDF files. You are a life-saver my
friend.
Thanks again.
Ken
