Hi Gerald,

Thanks a million. I'll do all this as you suggest. But what about my 
question concerning what happens when you download this Daisy file about 
Jaws 10 features, like where it installs and how you launch the FS Reader to 
read it? Thanks.

Joel,

To learn all about FS Reader, simply launch the JAWS Help menu, arrow down
once to Training and hit Enter.  The first item should be "FS Reader Getting
Started". Hit enter to bring up the tree view of topics.  Hit Enter on the
first topic and the Daisy book explaining FS Reader will begin playing.  To
navigate in an FS Daisy book, press Control-P to play/pause, Control-S to
stop, Control-. to advance  forward 5 seconds and Control-, to go back 5
seconds.  Hope this is enough to get you started.
