Hi CarolI know Steve is very strict about going off topic - but as we are discussing the subject; I would imagine that your note taker has much better word-processing capabilities as compared to a phone or tablet. This is relevant to me as I'm contemplating buying a Braillesense or a lap-top for documents.

Steve and all,I do agree that the notetakers are running on "old technology" but, for me anyway, I just don't want to keep hooking up display and phone. Tried it and do it again sometimes but really just prefer to be working on one device. Yes, it's the price I've paid but now, having purchased, I'll work it as hard as I can! <Smiley>Carol P ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Nutt" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 25, 2014 1:48 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: BRAILLE SENSE FURTHER DISCUSSIONHi Pele, Having read all the problems you guys are having with these Braille note takers, I can't help but agree with this blog post called I'm Done With Braille Note Takers. I've always said that mainstream is best and with ageing note takers in terms of the software they run on, this just strengthens my argument for getting a phone/tablet and hooking a Braille display to it. Anyway, an interesting read is here:-https://mehgcap.wordpress.com/2014/07/19/im-done-with-braille-notetakers/?ut m_content=buffer92de2&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer All the best Steve -- Computer Room Services 77 Exeter Close Stevenage Hertfordshire SG1 4PW Tel: +44(0)1438-742286 Mob: +44(0)7956-334938 Fax: +44(0)1438-759589 Email: steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web: http://www.comproom.co.uk -----Original Message-----From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf OfPele West Sent: 25 July 2014 08:48 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: BRAILLE SENSE FURTHER DISCUSSION Hi Carol Thanks for writing and trying the Macro Recorder. I am glad it works for you. I am still waiting to here from Sight and Sound/HIMS about the QWERTY version. The other thing I mentioned was the Find Again. I am not sure how this works on a braille version, but it should be possible to press <Shift+F3> on the QWERTY version to find something earlier in a document instead of Tabbing to it. Incidentally, you should not need to use macros to create an e-mail signature. If you go to <Tools> <Account Manager> and <modify> your account there is an option to create a signature. Apologies if you already knew this. Good luck with the upgrade.
