Hi Terry, If you follow Ann's instructions, you should be fine. Thank you so much, Ann, for replying to this post. I would have done it sooner, but I just got back from school, and you'd already answered Terry's question about appointments. Here's the answer to the Computer Braille question you asked Terry: The SPACE with U does not turn on the Computer Braille. Press BACKSPACE with J, then do SPACE with U then do a dot 4, and then return to the grade you were using, which would probably be Grade 2, so you would therefore press BACKSPACE with dots 1-2 to return back into Grade 2. If you have any more questions about this, just post. HTH. Maria

I'm not sure if you implied this in >>your list, but you didn't mention selecting KeyPlan or a day from the >>callendar before you began talking about appointments, so I'll just go >>through the commands you can use in case this was the step you thought you >>might have been leaving out. If, at the KeyPlan Calendar, you press SPACE >>with dots 3-4, you'll just get an Error Alert Tone. At the KeyPlan >>Calendar, >>you can: Select the Day Offered: ENTER; Move Forward a Day: SPACE with dot >>6; Move Back a Day: SPACE with dot 3; Move Forward a Week: SPACE with dot >5; >>Move Back a Week: SPACE with dot 2; Move Forward a Month: SPACE with dot 4; >>Move Back a Month: SPACE with dot 1; Move Forward a Year: SPACE with dots >>5-6; Move Back a Year: SPACE with dots 2-3; Type the Date in the Format: >>number sign, month, number sign, day, number sign, year, an example being, >>for March 4, 2004, you would enter 3 4 2004. Once you've selected a date, >>your cursor is either placed at the top of the page for that date, or, if >>there is existing text, it is put ahead of any existing text. Once you're >>at this point, you can now enter an appointment. Although you can go to >the >>Schedule Appointment Option in the Appointments Menu by pressing SPACE with >>dots 3-4 and then S, as you suggested, the shortcut to do this is SPACE >with >>dots 2-6. You'll be prompted for the day of the appointment, and this is >>the KeyPlan Calendar, so you can follow the same procedure as explained >>above to select a day. Press ENTER after doing so. You then have to enter >>the time in this format: number sign, hour, number sign, minute, then am or >>pm (e.g.) 4:25 PM would be written as 4 25 am. Then, after pressing ENTER, >>you're asked for the Title, and you put in the required text. After >>pressing ENTER, you're asked if you want to set an alarm for the >>appointment. Press Y for Yes or N for No. If you select No, your >>appointment is scheduled, and you're done. If you select Yes, you're >>prompted for a warning time, which is the amount of minutes the alarm will >>sound before your appointment, and you put in a number between, and >>including, 0 and 120, as you pointed out. Your appointment is scheduled. >>FYI, in the Appoints Menu, the other options, which are "Cancel Appoint" >>"Reschedule Appointment" and "Alarm Status" (which you enter when your >>cursor is on an appointment, which you can do by pressing any touch cursor >>button above the cells which contain the appointment's text, and it tells >>you if an alarm is set or not, and gives you the options to set or clear >>one, depending on if an alarm is set or not when you enter this option, and >>it also allows you to change the warning time), can be reached with >>shortcuts. You don't have to go to the Appointments Menu with SPACE with >>dots 3-4 and then select C, R, and A respectively; for Cancel, Reschedule, >>and Alarm Status, the keyboard shorcuts, respectively, are: BACKSPACE with >>C, BACKSPACE with R, and BACKSPACE with A. The commands for navigating >>through the entries of the planner, from day to day, and to the top and >>bottom of a certain day's page, are all correct: Enter a New Appointment: >>Follow procedure above, starting with section on entering the Appointments >>Menu; Current Entry That You Are On in the Entire Planner for That Year: >>SPACE with dots 1-4; Next Entry in That Year's Planner: SPACE with dot 4; >>Previous Entry in that Year's Planner: SPACE with dot 1; Current Day of >That >>Year's Planner: SPACE with dots 2-3-5-6; Next Day in That Year's Planner: >>SPACE with dots 5-6; Previous Day in That Year's Planner: SPACE with dots >>2-3; Top of Current Day's Page (the page on which your cursor is located): >>SPACE with dots 1-2-3; Bottom of Current Page (the page on which your >cursor >>is located): SPACE with dots 4-5-6. The reason I say "that year's planner" >>is because each planner file covers a year, which means if you want to go >to >>another year, you have to press SPACE with E to return to the KeyPlan >>Calendar, and then select another year. The year begins at 12 AM on the >1st >>of January of the year, and the first time you use a certain year's >planner, >>a file is automatically created in the KeyPlan folder on the Flash Disk, >>which stores all your entries for that year; a planner of 2004 would be >>called "2004 Planner" and the 2005 planner would be called "2005 Planner" >>etc. Note that the commands for moving by entry, day, etc. discussed >above >>move your cursor to that position, but if you ever want to know the date of >>the day your cursor is currently in, you can press SPACE with dots 1-5-6, >>and the date will be displayed with the day of the week and the year >>included, so it would look like: Thursday, March 4, 2004.
