I have some Office Systems Instructors that are looking for a good 
electronic Timed Typing Testing System.  Currently, we are using
a TSR type program that locks out keys like backspace and arrows,
Then after a certain amount of time, inserts exit keystrokes into
the word processor.  The file is printed along with a WPM rating.
We use PC-Write as the entry program.  

What we would really like is a program, with student assignments,
that would check the typing too!

Anybody use an Ideal system like this, and want to tell us about it?

Thanks!
