Dan,
  At first I thought no problem.  Until I blew off the dust from my
copy and read the manual.  I was sure you could configure it to write
through BIOS like the shareware version.  I could not find it though.
If you really don't need the new features the plus version offers, I
would recommend you use the shareware version.  It speaks very well.

Commercial time!

Also, just to let you know, Vocal-Eyes has a read box feature.  Procomm
plus uses boxes when it displays information on the screen.  If all you
want is for the contents of the box to be spoken, you can press a single
key (the keystroke is your choice) and Vocal-Eyes will find and read the
entire box.  You can even take this one step farther.  By using the
cursoring keys of Vocal-Eyes, you can setup when you press the procomm
plus keystroke which displays a box to tell Vocal-Eyes to automatically
speak the box.  For example, ALT-Z is the help screen.  You can inform
Vocal-Eyes when you press ALT-Z, after procomm plus has placed the box
on the screen to speak it to you.  No additional keystrokes and best of
all NO MACROS!

O.K. end of commercial!

Regards,
  Doug
