visual keyboard

[Dr Alok Modi MD]

I understand by reading the couple of posts here that:
1. The downloadable goody that comes in the downlaod section of microsoft
office online for visual keyboard is available only for office 2000 and
office XP versions. Also if you are not aware, it is also not applicalble for
windows XP platform. I learnt this after downaloading it.
2. Microsoft has no plans to upgrade this software for office 2003 users.
3. Thw way out of this problem is that you activate the alternate language
pack you plan to use (now that is a big story and how to do it is best learnt
from the microsoft office site, or write to me I will post this on a new post
here.
4. Then after you have activated the other language, on the language bar, go
to START ---- ALL PROGRAMS-----ACCESORIES----ACCESSIBILITY------ONSCREEN
KEYBOARD. and voila!!! you can see what to print onscreen. Also there are
wonderful methods available on the keyboard like hovering, typing etc which
reduces your work like anything.

Now after contributing this much to this forum, albeit I am not a MVP, I
just want to know only one thing?
Is there a third party add - in available that I can download that provides
me a bigger size keyboard as the one provided by the system is too small and
pains in my eyes!!!!


Thanks for all your time

A few years ago I participated in a business expo for people with
accessability issues. There were so many products available for comoputer
users I was dumb-founded. I would suggest starting with your local Center for
the Blind. If you don't have one, contact me out of this group and I can put
you in tough with the one in my town. I know that they've worked with
different software programs for people with visual problems.

The size of the OnScreen Keyboard is determined by the screen
resolution. R-click desktop, Properties, Settings and move the slider
left. The "keyboard" will become larger.
