Ted,  I have had limited experience with dbase and foxplus.  Our NEWSLINE for
the Blind "talking Newspaper" system uses foxplus.  Some of the stuff doesn't
talk, but when I edit records, etc. my speech seems to follow the arrow keys
fine, like with dbase.  I have not uwed either program extensively, though.
