Hi Rosario, Have your Jaws set for all punctuation for my below explanation.
I am using a USB flash drive with Windows 7 with Word 2007. I hope the following information will help you. 1. Begin by knowing the name of your flash drive and remember its first letter. 2. Have your flash drive plugged in to your PC. Doesn't matter which port. 3. Press windows key and E to open Computer. 4. Press shift tab to move to the treview. 5. Now press the first letter of the name of your flash drive. It's name should be spoken. When you hear it, listen very carefully for a letter said after the name. It is probably going to be the letter E. But if you are running a small notebook, without a built in CD drive, the letter could be D like mine. 6. Now right arrow and start down arrowing to the folders you have installed. Press enter on the folder where your desired file is located. 7. Now tab on this folder to open and you will find the files in that folder. 8. Up or down arrow to the file you want and enter. It should open. 9. If you just have files on your flash drive, I think you just skip #7. Okay, now for saving something from Word. I am going to give you every shortcut I know. Let's say you have just written a file for the first time. Do the following. 1. Press F12. This is a shortcut key that takes you directly to the save as command. Remember I asked you to remember the letter for your flash drive? Well you can now use it. First we will do this thinking that you have no folders on your flash drive. A. Type E:\ and the name you want to give your file. Example: e:\Russ. The colon and the backslash are the gateway to your flash drive after you typed in its letter, E. Now let's say you have a folder. Let's call it Monday. B. Type in the E:\ and the letter of the folder, which, in this case was M. After a brief pause, down arrow and do a say all. You should hear the name of the folder, Monday. After this name, put a backslash. C. Now write the name of the current file you are saving. D. Okay, now just press enter and you have saved that file on your flash drive. Note: Let's say that you have more than one folder on your flash drive that begins with the letter S. Let's say it's name is Saturday. When you do the say all, you will hear Saturday. Tap the down arrow key again and do a say all. This time you should hear Sunday. I hope this helps. Feel friee to write me back with any questions you might have.
