We have a beta copy of a program called Key Guard which stops anything appearing and makes a noise if 2 keys are pressed at the same time. Contact me if interested. Any spellchecker (Word, Spellcatcher) will usually correct such errors easily as a separate process. Now you come to mention it, automatic correction programs like Word's ought to be able to do it as a matter of course, because it is a fairly common type of typo and, I would think, fairly easily diagnosed/programmed. I presume that you have considered a physical key guard? Regards Ian Litterick www.iansyst.co.uk www.dyslexic.com Support the Right to Read Campaign.
