Hi Susan,
the Talking Checkbook is a full checkbook management program that
also allows the user to print checks after the print parameters
have been set using the print menu option. You can use a
non-tracktor feed printer and any size check. I wrote the basic
program and Don Barrett added the print set up routines. I use it
on an IBM clone with speech synthesis and have had no problems with
it. I just got sick of trying to use commercial software that never
talked all that well.
You can download "Checks39.zip" from the Massachusetts Commission
for the Blind BBS (617)-451-5327 and if you have a Hayes 9600
modem, then you can also do it at the faster speeds. In any event
Susan, that's the scoop.
I know that some other BBS systems have the talking checkbook
available for downloading, but I am not sure who.
Hope you are well and should you decide to use the program, then
I think it would meet your needs.
Enjoy.
