Steve, thank you for your answers.
I'll ReRead the article with these definitions and procedures in mind and
see if I can get this puppy running.

Hi Steve:
I am not clear on how to enable WE for Remote Desktop use on 2 XP Pro
machines:
I am not clear on which machine is considered the host and which the
client.
I would normally consider the host machine the one that you would log
into to perform operations on that machine.
I would consider the client any computer anyplace on the network that
tries to log into the host computer do do work on the host computer via
Remote Desktop.
I also consider a server something like Windows 2003 or Windows 2008.
So if you could address the next 3 questions it would help:
1) does the section on Enabling Window-Eyes Video Support apply to my
situation where both the Host computer and the Client computers are
running XP Pro and WE 7.3.5?
If so is it set up on the Host machine, the Client machine or both?
Yes; it does. The setup only needs to occur on the host machine.
2) Do we setup the Virtual Channel for the windows XP machines and, if
so, which one or both?
You install the virtual channel support on the machine hosting the
connection. Then, while you're using the remote copy from your client,
switch to the virtual channel to have your local synthesizer produce all
of the speech.
3) When you talk about running WindowEyes on the client does this apply
if both the client and the host already have windoweyes running since
both of us are blind and have WE started at computer BootUp on our xp
machines.
I don't understand this question. If you are asking if both machine must
have Window-Eyes installed, then the answer is yes.
Regards,
Steve
