A friend of mine has a problem with Windows 3.0. She's handicapped but quite willing to use computer. She is unable to work with keyboard but mouse is OK. Are there any PD, SW or commercial solutions to type text into Windows 3.0 using mouse only ? thanks in advance Markku Jaatinen Jyvaskyla, Finland Internet e-mail: mpj@tukki.jyu.fi

One os the last jobs I had was at the "Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Crippled Children" (now just "Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children") We didn't see these children as 'crippled', just physically challanged.. Anyway.. I worked in the Research Department and one of the projects we worked on was interface devices for a computer. We came across a word processing package that used a mouse, but didn't run under windows.. The other project involved using a second computer to input text to the first computer (using a mouse, trackball, etc..) at the DOS level so it could be used with any package.. You might try them at (214) 559-7877 and ask for David Ross, he was the main deveolper for this project.. He is a nice guy and might be able to help you :) Address: Texas Scottish Rite Hospital Research Department 2222 Welborn Dallas, Texas USA 75219 Good luck.. Say Hi to David for me - Michael
