Hi Larry, May I recommend the American Heritage Talking Dictionary?? I bought it because I have a real problem with pronoucing words! :( This is windows based and will help you locate words and pronouces them thru a sound card if you have it :) :) :) Also, it is a CD and was only like $39.99 from SoftKey software Sorry if this is a PLUG but I use this CD all the time :) Art Bahrs +-------------------------------------------+------------------------------+ | Oregon Health Sciences Foundation |The views here are no one's, | | Art Bahrs, Manager of Information Services| least of all, mine! | | Vice President, HP Oregon Regional Users Group (ORERUG) | +-------------------------------------------+------------------------------+ | And the men who hold high places must be the ones to start. | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | [log in to unmask] 'The Professor' Work: (503) 220-8333 Fax: (503) 228-9588 | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ On Wed, 24 Apr 1996, Larry Boyd wrote: > Hello all, > > I was wondering if anyone knew of a windows based English dictionary. > Often, I find my spelling is so bad that the spell checker can't find > even a suggestion:).
