Hi roger,
Thanks for responding. your comments help in addition to what I've already
been told. I finally got into it. Still figuring out a couple of the right
moves, but it's coming along. Thanks again.

Hi,
Reading Daisy books is really easy. Just do an insert J and hit H. You
will be sitting on the training section. Hit enter and you will be shown a
listing of Daisy books which have been installed previously. There are many
ways to install Daisy books. Hit enter on
the one you want and you will be in a tree view. You can read the book or
section or chapter with the Jaws voice or by the human recording. To read
the information in text just tab to read only edit. You can make as many
book
marks as you want in order to return to where you left off. Once you start
reading a book in Dasy format, I think you will appreciate its flexibility.
This format is like having the book in your hand. Fs Reader is a program
which is automatically invoked.
