Re: [Blind-Computing] Can Embedding files into messages bedoneinOutlook?
Oh BOY! Was I ever off the mark on this one -- my apologies. I remember doing that in Outlook Express and it was a really neat feature. I used to invite a firend to breakfast via e-mail (outlook express) and I'd go to the ATT Naturally Speaking demo page and create a WAV with a British accent with all sorts of screwy comments about joining me for breakfast -- comments as if it were a butler making the invitation! She always got a huge kick out of that. What I remember about using Outlook Express to do ths was to use the FILE menu item New Message Using . . . That would force the new e-mail message into HTML format and then you could use the Insert (or something like that) feature to include a sound file. I know I sure haven't been able to find a way to do this with Windows Live Mail -- sure preferred Outlook Express. To You Yours: A Very Merry Christmas Happy New Year !!!

Mr. Holland, In Outlook Express you can imbed a sound file into an email. What that will do is for instance, let's say it's your birthday I want to send you an email for your birthday. Well, I can imbed a birthday song into the email if your email client allows this, the birthday song will play when you open the email to read it. This isn't an attachment but imbedded. But, this will only work if you are reading your email in HTMl. If you take 1 of these emails with an imbedded sound reading it in HTML change the setting to read in plain text, this imbedded sound will not play but, the imbedded sound in the HTMl email now becomes an attachment in the plain text email. I don't know what other email clients the imbedded sound feature will work in but, it sure is a cool feature of Outlook Express If I have in any way screwed up the explanation of how imbedded sounds work, someone please straighten me my explanation out!.

Exactly what do you mean by embedding files in the first place? If you mean inserting a file or files as attachments, certainly! You need to use the Insert menu.

Re: [Blind-Computing] deleting wlm contacts
Not sure if this is easier, but can create a Category and add all the entries you want to get rid of to that category. Then opt to delete the category, one of the options is to remove the category and all included members of said category. Holland's Boy, Bill - I spilled spot remover on my dog.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Reading Tables in MS Word with Jaws
Mark, Once you enter the table, you should be in the first box. That would be Row 1, Column 1. The first row is likely a number of headers. You should be able to use the arrow keys to travel down the column or across the row; stopping in each element. Also, using the TAB key will move you to each succeeding element. For example, if there are 6 columns and 8 rows, continually using the TAB from Row 1, Column 1 should take you to Column 2, Column 3, Column 4, Column 5 and Column 6; using the TAB in Row 1, Column 6 should take you to Row 2, Column 1, etc. Using SHIFTTAB will cause to navigate up the table. Once you find yourself in the middle of the table, using the right and left arrow keys will move you along the row; using the up and down arrows keys will move you up and down the column.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Windows Mail, Setting It As The Default Email Client
I don't have enough information here to be sure of answers. Here's the thing though, Windows Mail is essentially Outlook Express renamed (with probably a few unremarkable enhancements). If your list has Outlook Express it will not have Windows Mail as an option. The other thing is, if Windows Mail is not installed on your PC it will again not show up as an option. Finally, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail are NOT the same program. I know this because I originally had Windows Mail on my PC, and something happened that corrupted one of the program's DLL components. Windows presented me with an option to reload Windows Mail, but instead downloaded and installed Windows Live Mail. Ugh! If I had only known!

Re: [Blind-Computing] Captcha and Screen Reader
From my perspective, it's not about the money or anything like that. It's just simply the fact that sighted folks would never, ever tolerate this sort of treatment. And justifiably so. Just because something is what it is, that is no reason to accept it. CAPTIAs are a real impediment to the sight-impaired community and if anything like this were perpetrated on any other group there would be an uproar of condemnation and anger that would be unmistakable in its' intent.
