Hi George,
I am also in communication with Duxbury but my even so my problem isn't
solved yet so I thought I would get back to you and get your input too. My
Duxbury JAWS file was empty so I copied from my JAWS demo folder the dbtw files
with these extensions: jcf, jkm, jsb, jsd, jsm, and jss into the Duxbury JAWS
folder. Also a dialogue box popped up having me go to the JAWS script manager
and save it. I did that as the user. It was saved as JAWS Windows jss in the
ENU file.
None of this helped and even made matters worse because not only would it
not read my Braille but my other keyboard keys such as the arrows, backspace,
delete, etc stopped working.
I deleted the files out of Duxbury and also the internet ones in the JAWS
folder which had appeared. I still think that I am worse that when I started
because when JAWS in running, my keyboard short cuts and arrow keys for moving
the cursor in print no longer work the way they used to.
What do you suggest that I do? My JAWS demo is going to run out in a couple
of days and I talked to Freedom Scientific and am going to download another
demo. I am sighted and am doing all this because I am working on lessons for
teaching the blind computer Braille skills for a possible personal project.
Can you list steps I should take with all this?
Thanks, Sandy

Hi Sandy,
I may be wrong, but I suspect you will have to re-install (or rather "Repair")
DBT in order to install the JAWS scripts for DBT. If DBT didn't see JAWS on
your system when you installed, it wouldn't install these.
George.

Here is a question I cannot find the answer to in the help menus of JAWS or
DBT. I have downloaded the demo of JAWS and am working in Duxbury with it. I
understand the commands for reading print text, but when I begin with the
braille screen, I can't get the screen reader to correctly read the braille I
have entered. It seems that I have to translate it to print first. Is there a
keyboard command for the screen reader to work with the braille entry?
Thanks, Sandy
