If I'm not mistaken, you can also have a running dialog using Notepad if started through the Run dialog by the controlling computer. I'm almost positive that at 1 time David Ferrin or Rick Justice & I were doing a Tandem session, with either of them being the controlling computer, & we used Notepad to communicate back & forth with 1 another. We were on the phone with each other, but I think we were playing around to see if this Notepad back & forth communication would work. Personally, whenever I've done a Tandem session with someone both parties are always using telephone contact just so the controlling computer person can explain to the target computer person exactly what the controller is doing, so the target computer / person doesn't freak out hearing a bunch of computer lingo that they might not be used to hearing or understanding what's happening. As far as the Notepad communication, hopefully Señor Ferrin or Señor Justice will chime in to confirm what I'm saying about how it might work or, to say I'm full of .....LOL
