I think this is definitely an advantage of the QT, smile. We don't have as many combinations of stuff to do things. Course if you hate windows and menus, then the way the QT does things is well... smile. Shelley L. Rhodes and Judson, guiding golden juddysbuddy@xxxxxxxxxxxx Guide Dogs For the Blind Inc.

First of all, the suggestions of making a txt file from the Daisy version of the book is a good one. Once you've done that, you can open the file. Then you want to switch to 6-dot braille rather than grade 2. You can do this with a combination of two of the thumb-keys, but unfortunately I don't know which because I have mine rearranged. Then you can go into the options menu and hit b for braille, then go down to computer braille table. You have to use dots 3-4 with space to switch between tables, you want to choose Spanish computer braille. Then, if you want to do writing in Spanish you need to switch keyboard to 8-dot braille. If you need any more help with this just ask and I'll see what I can do. It took me a little time to get used to the weird way you have to do Spanish on the BN, but once you figure it all out it works okay. Kellie -- No virus found in this incoming message.
