Sarah,
That works. It has the advantage that the locktext of the field can
be set to false, leaving the field open to editing.
The advantage of using the clickChunk is that I have more freedom on
where to resume speaking. No need to begin at the next sentence.
I will try both for a while to see which works best.
Thanks Sarah
