Hi Charley,

I am sorry but you have made an incorrect assumption. Orca is a screen
reading piece of software in otherwords it takes what is off the screen and
turns it in to voice it does not take voice and turn it in to text. I am
totally blind myself and use it. That's why I had to make the correction.

Thank you for telling me. At least I know that now. It is something I
will not forget. I may need that soon, myself, as my vision fades fast
again.

Thank you.
