All The Right Type for Windows is a keyboarding instructional program for grades 4 through adult levels. It features a GUI that, at the teacherís option, engages students in either conventional drills or an animated rowing competition.

Tests can be delivered in the teacherís choice of standard format or timed writing. Onscreen text may be turned off, allowing students to type from printed copy for greater test flexibility. The program also links to word processing software already on the computer.

Designed specifically for schools, evaluation copies are offered to educators. Technical support is free. And site licenses include the option of ordering student take-home disks in DOS, Windows, Mac or Apple II formats. VR Didatech, Burnaby, BC, Canada, (800) 665-0667, www. vrsystem.com.
