Hi John!
Here is the link again.
What you need to do is put the full URL onto the clipboard and paste it into
the run box.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1836930/Frequency_Chart_2012.zip
What should happen is you should get the save as dialogue. It is a zipped
archive, as is required by Daisy rules.
Extract the daisy content and copy the extracted book to the appropriate
place for your Daisy player.
Hope this helps.
73,
Dave

Hi Dave,
I clicked on the link and JAWS tells me that "the page has no links,
whistlewig and a string of characters", I have no clue what tthis means?
