Hello Allan.

It sounds as if you are using Duxbury DBT version 11.2. In that case, you can get the results you desire automatically by making use of a file called altmath_nem.sbt. In the DBT program folder you need to make a copy of the file altmath_nem.sbt called altmath.sbt. You can read about this at:

http://www.duxburysystems.com/dbt_math.asp?f3=AND 

under the heading Choosing Your Technical Braille Code. You will find the directions under the heading Step by Step Instructions.

All the best,
Caryn
