Andrew and Sharon, In my opinion, the easiest way to edit a DAISY project is by using the PRS software. I think that this is what Sharon was doing at first. If the basic problem is that she didn't know how to split a phrase, this is a very easy process to carry out. It's done as follows:
1. in the phrase list, cursor up or down to the phrase that you want to split. 2. Press CONTROL+P to start the splitting process. 3. Press the RIGHT and LEFT CURSOR to adjust the marker to the location at which you want to split the phrase and then hit the ENTER key. 4. You will then be asked to confirm the process - simply press ENTER again. I tend to find that it is easier to go beyond the point you want to split at and then come back to the left but that is just my own preference. When you have finished the editing, you can use the in-built CD writing facilities to create your final CD. This process will also write the diskinfo.html file for you so you don't need to do this manually. Hope this helps, Jamie P.S. I would certainly recommend downloading version 2 of the PRS software from the Plextalk web site rather than using the version that was originally distributed on the user manual CD. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hodgson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 December 2004 10:29 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: editing question Hi. There is probably no discinfo.html in the root of the card or the discinfo.html file doesn't refer to the new directory containing the book you copied over. Unfortunately, PRS won't manipulate these files, so you need to do it manually using Notepad or another editor of your choice. If you see the structure of the file you should be able to work out the modifications (adding an A tag for the /bookDIR/ncc.html file).

I'm trying to edit a file and I have questions. I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing but this is what I have done. I opened a new project. I told it to save a audio file also. I chose 128 kb. I edited about most of the parts that I didn't want. There is one large section that I tried to split. I got to the point where I wanted it to split but didn't figure out how to do that. I thought that I would try and do it in the ptr1 itself. I was doing it on the computer before with the software. I put it back in the ptr1 and it said there was no file on the card. It was the same directory with the same files in it. I just moved them from the hard drive back to the card. Why doesn't it see it in the card? Can I edit it from there? Please give me some pointers and tell me what I did wrong.
