Joseph,
I believe you are looking for the control-x key to select file
type using a qwerty keyboard.

Tiffany,
That is because text documents like MS Word files are pure text.
Inputing
braille characters cannot be done, slthough there is a work
around. At the
KeyWord options, switch the document format toKeyWord braille.
Create a
document and edit the text using braille characters. Then press
space with s
(Ctlr+s). When the document name appears, press backspace with x
(I forgot
the QT command) until you see Microsoft Word format. Name the
document using
grade 1 braille (essentially same as computer braille) and press
enter. Then
you can transfer that doc file to a USB flash drive *the correct
term for
thumb drive).

Subject: [Braillenote] Keyword and file types
Hello All,
I am hoping someone out here or someone from Humanware can
address this
problem. I have a friend who I was helping today with her BN.
She is a
student and wanted to change the file type to a Word document so
she can
save to her thumb drive and then put it in a computer when she
needs to.
However, this is what happened and where the problem lies. We
switched the
setting to save as a Word Document, then went to keyword to test
it out.
When we created a file it said this is a text document and
computer braille
is required. Why would anyone want to write in computer braille
while
typing a document? Furthermore, we tried to change it to grade 2
braille
and it said you are editing a text document and computer braille
can only
be used for this.
Can someone please clarify and help.
So is there a way to create a document on the BN in keyword and
then open
and modify the file on a computer without changing the file type
every time?
If there is a way can someone pleas let me know so I can help my
friend.
Thank you for your assistance,
Tiffany Manosh
