Hello Roger

Very many thanks for this. Too explain a little as to why I didn’t spot these 
in the Help. The system I’m using here is the ElBraille, so naturally, all 
keystrokes which you’d use on a standard keyboard have to be converted into 
their Braille-In equivalents. Thus, I obviously didn’t go as far in Help as I 
would ordinarily have done. But regardless, this is very much appreciated 
information. I shall now go back to the ElBraille and give it a go. 
Incidentally, I think I may have figured out why I couldn’t get the “@“ symbol 
to work. And it’s so damned simple a solution if I’m right, I’ll be kicking 
myself.

In the JAWS Braille Translation settings, although I set the language to UK, 
the input and output options both to UEB grade 2, this morning when tinkering 
around, I found a third such setting which was set to computer Braille. So I am 
hoping that this cures the problem. The reason I didn’t spot it was that I set 
the default option to UK and UEB. But I think this third setting has something 
to do with edit boxes as I could produce the symbol fine if focus was simply on 
the desktop. JAWS would beep, or maybe that’s Windows producing an error 
message because there is nothing on the desktop that begins with the “@“ 
symbol. But JAWS was speaking “@“, so I knew it was working there.

OK, I’ll go and try it, fingers and toes crossed!
