Hi Lisa, 

Yes, I know which keys for six-key, but my keyboard is incompatible with that 
method.  Not all keyboards work with six-key.

  The way that Perkey works is using f as dot 1, d as dot 2, s as dot 3, j as 
dot 4, k as dot 5, l as dot 6.

  I hope this may help you.

  I just answered my own questionSmile.  It's a simple braille editor like an 
electronic Perkins, but Jaws reads the braille as Ascii braille.  Plus is 
doesn't help because I still can't use six-key entry.  

   

  Next question then.  Can I hook up a BrailleNote and use that to input 
braille directly into DBT or Perky?  So instead of using the six-key entry, 
could I use an external braille device for that?

    Not sure if it's appropriate to ask, but since this is a Duxbury list...

     

    Is Perky Duck accessible using Jaws?  I can't use six-key entry with my 
keyboard and am looking for an alternative for direct braille entry on the PC.
