Dear Keven,

When you open the document, type y when you are asked if you want to review the options. Type y when asked if you want to translate into grade 2. You can now edit the document in grade 2, and it will switch it back when you finish. As a precaution, though, when ever I do this, I always copy the document to the clipboard before closing because the BN does not always translate the document correctly, and I have lost whole documents before.

HTH,
Nicole

Subject: [Braillenote] Editing a word document


Dear BrailleNote Listserv,

I have noticed while editing documents that is transferred from a computer that is in the format of word document or any format that will also run on the BrailleNote. I have notice that it will translate into Grade 2 without a problem, but when you are imputing data or information, it needs to be entered in Computer Braille, I find this rather annoy because when I am wanting to input data, I want to do it in my preferred grade, which is Grade 2. The only work-around I have found is to block the entire document off and dup it into a keyword document, then it will allow me to enter the data in Grade 2. I hope there is a setting I am able to change, so all of my entries are in Computer Braille unless I command it to take Computer Braille. The place I find it's okay to use Computer Braille is on the web or while doing email, not while writing a document. So, if anyone knows of a setting or a more efficient work-around, please do share.
Thanks,
Kevin
