How do I create a file which contains my vocal instructions along with
screen motions? A light weight shareware or any MS offce suite
function will be good. I am not asking any heavy duty multi-media
software suite. Using a camcorder to tape my computer screen isn't an
answer.

Hello bobtheresa,

Without a doubt, my favourite screen capture video program is
Camtasia. You can download a fully functional free 30 day trial here:

Excellent. This tool is pretty handy.

If you want something that can also capture individual windows or
certain areas of the screen, along with the standard capture the whole
screen, and you want it for free try Windows Media Encoder

I would swear by Camtasia. I have used it endlessly for training software...
