looking for a program

2009-07-23 Thread Sharon Lash
I'm looking for a program that will remind me of things I need to do: classes, 
remembering dates, etc. Is there one out there? I have window-eyes and windows 
xp. Thanks.

Day By Day is made specifically for the low vision/blind user. Below is 
taken from the web site.

I've used this, and it works great.

Day by Day Professional 2.0

* Setup multiple-user accounts, as many as you like, with optional password 
protection for user privacy

* Easily switch between user accounts on the fly
* accessible calendar that permits you to flip through dates by day, week, 
month, or year
* Save multiple notes to any date on the calendar... no more cramming all 
your events on one note
* Export all your notes, or a range of notes, to a html file, web page 
format, or a text file format
* Powerful find text feature to easily help you find words or phrases in all 
your notes by using the standard ctrl+f

* Set pop-up reminders, date and time, for any note in the calendar
* Set reminders to automatically reoccur never, daily, weekly, monthly, or 
yearly.

* choose to snooze a reminder for x minutes or accept it
* Set your own custom sounds for reminder and note events
* Built in address book that allows you to store a wealth of information 
about your contacts... over 16 fields of data
* Address book allows you to customize the fields. For example, you can 
change zip code to postal code or fax number to birthday. It's your choice!
* From within the address book, Open your default e-mail program ready to 
send an email to the currently selected person

* Open the selected person's web page from within the address book
* Export your address book to the Windows clipboard or a text file
* Dial a contact's phone number from within the address book
* Program options include: load at windows startup, minimize to the system 
tray out of your way, toggle playing of sounds, support for both date 
formats day/month/year and month/day/year
* Self-voicing mode! Turn on self voicing and tab around and have custom 
installed sound files tell you exactly where you are on the screen. You can 
use this feature if your screen reader doesn't read items properly. If your 
screen reader supports creating custom spoken prompts, you can use the 
self-voicing mode to help you identify what the screen items are so you can 
properly label them.

* tab through all options on any screen
* backup database feature
* compact database feature

All those accessible features for only $25.95 USD! If you order the BSC demo 
CD for an additional $10.00 USD, included on the CD is the four free hands 
on audio tutorials that teach you how to use DBD Pro!


Program limitations:

15 day fully functional trial
