When I was learning how to use the computer,  they taught us to use
lightning, but one thing I did not like about it, was that I like
to check my mispelled words after I have finished.  When you would
highlight the mispelled words, then use your speech program to find
them, the first key you would press, would cause all of the
highlighted words to dissappear.  That is why I have ruled that one
out.  Can you get around that problem?

I don't like to be stopped while I am typing, because it breaks my
trend of thought.
