What if you tried opening the .brf document in Notepad or Wordpad?  I think
they will open .brf files.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Opening a book in Microsoft word.

Hi, first let me give you details on what I have, I am running windows
7 on a dell desktop, I have jaws 13, and I've got a focus blue 40 classic.

What I want to do is read a book with jaws and my focus 40 blue.  When I try
opening a book in the BRf format in word it says it can't open the file.  So
I then tried downloading the same book in daisy text only and opened the
folder and tried renaming the mxl part of the book and for some odd reason
renaming was disabled.

Any tips on this would be greatly appreciated, I can't believe there isn't a
way to just open a bookshare book in word and read with your Braille
display.

I also tried web reader and ugh that is not very accessible.

thanks.
