Dear Lois,
Actually, it's easier with a QT. Press read with g and when you get to
the
edit box, press read with space to stop the reading. Type the title of the
book using the regular QT keyboard. QT users don't have to use computer
braille, (grin). Tab to the next field and press w for web braille. Keep
tabbing until you get to the search button and press enter.

: Hi James,
:
: Maybe this is more than I can do. I should have mentioned that I have a
qt.
: The other thing is, I don't know computer Braille. That's okay though.
I
: can do the magazines and when I can afford it, I will join Bookshare.
:
: Thanks again for all your help. I do appreciate it.
:
: Take care,

: Hello again Lois,
:
: Using a BT keyboard, use dot four with spacebar for your general
reading
: till you get close to where you need to edit your search information.
If
: you think you are close to that edit field, use read words command or
dot
: five with spacebar. When it asks for the author, last name first, watch
: closely for something that says text input or text input end. You must
: write what you are searching for in computer braille. Once you have
entered
: what you are looking for, find the go search button or whatever they
call
: it. Names of search buttons vary from site to site. You may need to
wade
: through stuff at the top of the page or you can do a find command
(spacebar
: with F to take you where you need to go. When I'm reading braille books
or
: magazines, I go to those sections so I get what is truly available
through
: NLS only and those items which have been brailled as of last August I
: believe. Others may have a better answer though!

: Hi James,
:
: Thank you very much for your help.
:
: Is there an easy to search for a book, using the online catalog? I
can't
: seem to find an edit field in which to type. I've red the part of the
user
: manual, but I can't find an answer. I'm going to know that manual by
heart
: by the time I get it all figured out.

: Take care,

: Hello Lois and list,
:
: This is with the BT Keyboard.
:
: Once you are reading your magazine, press spacebar with S to save your
file.
: You will be prompted for the folder and file name. I usually use the
NLS
: number as my file name and if it is in more than one part, I add V01,
V02
: etc to the same number with the dot BRF extension. Once you have saved
your
: file, press the back control (enter with B) to go back to the previous
link
: which is the agreement, and type the back control again and you will be
at
: the list of the titles of your favorite magazine. Select the next part
and
: press enter. You are back to the agreement. Accept the agreement and
you
: are in the next part as before. Be sure to select the notetaker link of
: course. Keep doing this till you have downloaded the complete issue of
the
: magazine.
