One os the last jobs I had was at the "Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Crippled Children" (now just "Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children") We didn't see these children as 'crippled', just physically challanged.. Anyway.. I worked in the Research Department and one of the projects we worked on was interface devices for a computer. We came across a word processing package that used a mouse, but didn't run under windows.. The other project involved using a second computer to input text to the first computer (using a mouse, trackball, etc..) at the DOS level so it could be used with any package.. You might try them at (214) 559-7877 and ask for David Ross, he was the main deveolper for this project.. He is a nice guy and might be able to help you :) Address: Texas Scottish Rite Hospital Research Department 2222 Welborn Dallas, Texas USA 75219 Good luck.. Say Hi to David for me - Michael
