Re: Focus braille Display and VistaDate:
Sat, Jun 2, 2007 12:36:51 amHay Bill,
On the subject of Focus displays, I am wondering whether one can use the Braille keyboard on the Focus to input text into apps like MS Word and Word Pad using WE? I have a Focus 40 on my desktop computer at work but hadn't even thought about it until just now.

: The fine support staff at GW can correct me if I am wrong but if my memory

:
: ftp.gwmicro.com/special/fsbrldsp.msi
:
: If you download and run this file I believe that will install the drivers
: for the display.
:
: I don't know if this was ever tested in Vista.
:
: It has been a while since I had to tell anyone how to do this so please
: forgive me if this isn't the right answer to your question.
