Try contacting the library for the blind and asking them if there is a tape
that contains the information you need. When I first started out about 11
years ago the only tape the library had was an old one that taught typing.
At the end of one row of typing they told you to return the carriage!
Remember those old Royals? I hope they have updated their tapes and maybe
they have something for you. Good luck, Judith

keypad, with your middle finger on the number 5, the one with the raised
bump.

your ring finger on the right arrow (NUM PAD 6). This is what I call the

this to orient a new user to the rest of the keyboard, the function keys,
the alphabet or typing keys, ETC ETC ? Standardization seems to be the
problem such as the difference between a windows 102 and a windows 107
keyboard. As ever I am using Jaws 6.0 with Win XP home. Your information
will be immensely appreciated.
