HI PIP, THERE ARE SOME ONLINE MAGNIFIERS THAT YOU CAN USE, WILL HAVE A LOOK TOMORROW TO SEE IF I CAN FIND THE ONE THAT WE PUT ON THE LAPTOP. I HAD BILATERAL CATARACT OPERATION EARLIER THIS YEAR AND HAD PROBLEMS READING THE SCREEN UNTIL I HAD NEW READING GLASSES. I HAVE ALSO PUT IE7 ON THIS COMPUTER, BUT IT HAS BEEN REFORMATTED AND THERE ARE NO PROGRAMS OTHER THAN ANTIVIRUS, ANTISPYWARE, ANTISPAM AND FIREWALL, SO IF ANYTHING WAS TO GO WRONG, EASY ENOUGH TO GET GOING AGAIN. GOOD LUCK ROSALIND

CAPITALS DON'T BOTHER ME. PHILLUPA. YOU JUST DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. IF YOU DON'T FIND WHAT YOU NEED IN TERMS OF MAGNIFICATION FROM THE RNIB OR COMPUTER SOFTWARE, HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF SEEING WHAT A SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENT SUPPLIER CAN DO FOR YOU? I'M SURE THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF GIZMOS AVAILABLE IF WE JUST KNOW WHERE TO LOOK. ANYWAY, I'LL BE PLEASED TO SEE YOU ON THE BOARD, CAPITALS AND ALL. IT MUST BE VERY HARD WORK FOR YOU TO DO SO AND I THINK IT'S FANTASTIC THAT YOU PUT IN THE TIME AND EFFORT WHEN FACED WITH SO MUCH DIFFICULTY. X

Steve Apparently lots of people are having issues with IE7 at the moment. I dont think im in the minority, and had I realised the problems others were also having, I wouldnt have given myself the stress of upgrading to it lol ! If its got problems, then it shouldnt be released as an upgrade until they are ironed out. Ill try again some time down the line, im all for progress (and I noticed the magnifier) but wont install it again unless they iron out the issues. I just couldnt use it as it was with the creen freezes etc. E x

IF YOU HAVE DIFFICULTY READING THE MESSAGES AND HAVE A MOUSE WITH A WHEEL YOU CAN INCREASE/DECREASE THE SIZE OF EVERYTHING USING THE FOLLOWING METHOD; HOLD DOWN THE CONTROL KEY AND TURN THE WHEEL UP TO ENLARGE.

Phillupa Who wrote that thread about using the boards? Id like to read it. It's just that when I first started using these boards, using caps I thought was shouting. As everyother website Iv ever visited had used caps as a form of shouting. On genes reunited though, people use caps to highlight a word there trying to get across. I unfortunately found this out the hard way. It is a shame that you had to apologise and explain yourself though, you are a full paying member afterall. But it was thoughtful of you, hope you enjoy your stay at GR.
