Just a few things to add to that. If you plan to be copying from one
database to another, make sure the numbers match. It is crucial that you
set all of your numbers before entering any data because changing numbers
can cause you to loose data. Also watch out for the autocap and auto number
labels. You cannot usually write a letter in an autonum field, so make sure
that's what you want. You can also play around with the sort and display
orders, which are the last two lines of the document. Whatever you do,
though, make sure that you do not change the original, or, if you do, that
you have it saved elsewhere.
HTH,
Nicole

Hi Ann:
This is the long answer to your question. It is possible, and here goes.
(Note: Qwerty commands are in parenthesis).
1. From the Main Menu, press W.
2. Press C to create a document.
3. At the "drive" prompt, press F.
4. Press Backspace with X (Ctrl with X) to cycle through the types of
document types.
5. At the "Create a KeyList Definition file" prompt, write in the name
for your database and press Enter.
6. The top of your document will let you know that "Computer Braille is
required".
7. At this prompt, insert any name you choose, such as "address list".
8. Press B-chord I (Ctrl B) then I to insert a file.
9. At the "insert document from which drive" prompt, select the Flash
Disk.
10. At the "select folder" prompt, select the KeyList folder.
11. At the "list of files" prompt, press Space with X (Read with X) to
see "All files in KeyList folder."
12. Press Enter at the "address list" file.
13. Your file will be inserted into the newly created document and places
you at the bottom of the file.
14. At the top of the file, you will see "data base address list".
15. Delete the words "address list" and replace them with the name of
your desired data base.
16. Be sure to initial cap the first letter of the first word.
17. Each line will begin with a number and comma, (field names followed
by a comma), then the field type followed by a comma. Field label is in
quotation marks.
18. Delete fields you do not want by deleting lines from the number.
19. Leave a number at each new line.

Subject: [Braillenote] databases for 5.1
Hi all,
I realize this may be an odd question, but is it possible to
create a
database in version 5.1 of keysoft? I have a potential student
who
wants this info.
TIA,
Ann P.
