Microsoft windows xp and 2000 had a built in program that does that for you. Click Start>then click Control Panel> click on Speech icon and follow the prompts. Good luck!

I LOVE my Apples!  I've had a few over the years; currently, I have a 14" iBook, & a mini.  Both came with GarageBand installed.  \n\nGarageBand has been fun:  I have a cheap USB midi keyboard, a Griffin iMic, & cheap microphone)  \n\nIf you're good with a keyboard, you'll be able to do quite a bit without anything else.  There are 2 built-in inputs, but both are kind of clunky:  one is a virtual keyboard on the screen that you play with the mouse; and the other maps about 1 octave on your typing keyboard.  You can edit your midi tracks, but the program isn't necessarily optimized for that, & it's rather time-consuming to do any more than shift pitch or timing of notes.\n\nThe biggest downside for you will probably be the variety of voices.  There are expansion packs available, but they're $100 each (I bought one so far.)

Go to www.microsoft.com and go to downloads. They have allot of trial ware that you can download and use for a 30 period or longer at no cost to you, but you are limited on it's use (It is only basic)

Look at VB .NET.  The Visual Basic Express edition is free, and I started learning it on my own.  There's a lot to know, but if you're familiar with programming, you can get started quickly.

Have a look at Wacom tablets. They are very good. I have an excellent A5 one for use in Photoshop.\n\nThey have 256 pressure levels in programs that support it. If it's a program that doesn't support the pressure levels, then it will act just like a mouse, but is much more natural to use as it's like holding a pen.

Notepad is very limited. How limited I can't explain. Way less than what you want to do I guarantee. \n\nWordpad is a bit better.

Join my group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KeepYourComputerAlive/\n\nThis is a free group at Yahoo.   Let me put spaces in the URL, so the whole text appears. \n\ngroups. yahoo.com /group/ KeepYourComputerAlive/\n\n\nWe have members of our on-line group that use screen readers.  Maybe they have some alternate solutions for you.   \n\nCertainly, accessibility is a computer issue that I would also like to promote.  The real tests will come soon, as Microsoft rolls out their Windows Vista products.  Somehow, I doubt that Microsoft is sticking to their accessibility treatments.   We'll soon see. \n\nGood luck and hope that we can hook up.

Try an app named OmniForm. It may be a little expensive, but it works like a charm.

Well if your open to new things I would suggest trying OpenOffice which is completely free and has all the features of MS Office Pro. The program is able to ready almost every filetype and allow you to edit it. However, if you "need" MS Office i would suggest getting Student Teacher Edition for $149. It allows you to install the program on up to 3 computers and it comes with all that you need. The other editions of the program can be as expencive as $499 and are all avable and your local Office supply store, Consumer Electronic's store, and Online via retailers like Newegg or directly threw the big blue monster Mircosoft.

Yahoo and Google have a toolbar that you can download for free and there is another great one called Roboform that is great because it gives you 10 free form fillers or ten free passwords for email addresses. Also try a Yahoo search for free keyboard automation prgrams - they are awesome; just hit record, use your mouse and keyboard and then save those keystrokes and mouse movements and then press play and it will run on automatic until you stop it so you can enter thousands of times for many different competitions. Good luck!

Try easy office, it is a freeware version of Microsoft office, and can do everything & more that the Microsoft version does.  MS Office sells for $250+ & easy office is completely free & just as good.  I have them both on my home computers, and there really is no difference.\n\nYou can download it for free at:  http://www.download.com/3000-2079-10054140.html
