Yes, Terri, I tried this with a test document and see that you are
absolutely right. Hmmm...I wonder why I was able to convert WebBraille books
to .brf documents this way? And milissa, do not do what I suggested in my
previous e-mail because it will corrupt the file.

That won't work! You need to export the document to Word, not rename it!
Just changing the extension won't make it readable.

: Hi Milissa,
:
: Go to file manager and press enter on "rename file." Select "hard disk"
from
: the drive list, followed by the appropriate folder and file. When it
prompts
: you for the new file name, type it with a .doc extention. The .qwt
extention
: you have encountered means that the file is a Keysoft qwerty Braille
: document, which the computer will be unable to recognize. This is why it
is
: necessary to convert any files you want to read on the computer to
Microsoft
: Word documents. It may be possible to also convert files to .txt
documents,
: but I am unsure of this and know that others on the list will know
better
: than I. Also, from personal experience, I have found that it is never a
good
: idea to rename a Braille document by simply pressing control r from
keyword,
: because I have learned the hard way that it will corrupt the specified
file.
: I have not found this to be the case with Microsoft Word documents and I
: couldn't say about other file types since I have never tried to rename
any
: other such documents. Maybe some others on this list might know why this
is
: the case? Hope this helps.

: Hey all,
:
: I have a file I have created in Keyword and would like to copy it onto
my
: thumb drive so that the file can be read on a computer. I copied the
file
: onto my thumb drive using the file manager. However, when I pulled up
the
: file from the thumb drive on my computer, the file had a KWT extension
and
: windows would not open it. Is there a way to change the file extension
: before copying the file so that windows will recognize the file on my
: computer?
