Hi Paul
This may help with your origimal question. have you tried using the list tab 
which just lists all your events down the centre of the screen? So you can 
swipe  right to hear each one read out, or just Drag a finger  down the screen 
and you will hear the word you're looking for.
Hope this helps.
Dennis.
