Ray,  Is he running a program like Kurzweil 1000 or Openbook?  Both of those
come with a dictionary that's perfectly accessible.  If he has a DSL/cable
internet connection, he's better off looking for definitions through Google
or dictionary.com.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Accessible Dictionary

Hello All:

I received a call from someone that runs JAWS and is looking for an
accessible dictionary that he can install on his computer.  He bought
one from Best Buy and is not able to use it with JAWS, even using the
mouse keys.  So, if any of you have any suggestions for an accessible
dictionary that will work with JAWS and where to get it, please let me
know.

Thanks,
