You will need a Daisy player. You can get the demo for JAWS 6, and the Daisy
player will be installed with it.  Once you have the demo downloaded,
download the basic training material and unzip it to a folder of your
choice.

If you look in the zip file, you will find some .mp3 files. You could take
your chances with those, but it doesn't appear the files are in any kind of
logical order.  There are also some .htm files which you could read with
your web browser.  Same problem as above.  You're probably better off with
the Daisy player.  If you have another Daisy player, you can use it to
listen and read the basic tutorial for JAWS 6.

Hi Mat, thanks for the two links in the below post. I have a question for
anyone. I am still a bit confused. If I want to go back to the link that I
will post in a moment, and download this huge daisy format file will I be
able to hear it right away or am I going to need something else to play this
file. I have jaws 5.1 the link I talked about it
http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_products/training_basic.asp if you go to
that link you can download the whole daisy basic training for jaws 6.0 I
would like to hear it before I get jaws 6.0. If I will need something else
can I get this or do I have to have Jaws 6.0 installed to hear this file. 
Thanks.
