[Electronics-talk] Excel 2007 Question

[Ashley Bramlett]

also, if you want more help, we can chat off list. Excel is a tricky animal 
and I'm trying to learn it too. I have jaws commands somewhere for excel and 
with a more specific question, I might be able to help.

Hi Nicholas,
I don't believe there is a command for this. To read the cell below my
current one, I press down arrow. But to do it when they are in different
places, not together, I don't think there is a way. Read the jaws training
material; it should be under training in the menu if you have a recent jaws.
Also, hadley has a course in excel but it is not jaws specific. To read up
on it to see if its useful go to hadley.edu and click on find a course.
Jaws tech support may also help you with this, assuming you paid a
maintenance agreement.
Unfortunately, we cannot read at different parts of the screen as sighted
people and I'm afraid this is one example; they can skim down the column and
go to the row they want and read it. Not so with us.

Finally, if you want to read the colunm, there is a command for it, but
cannot remember now.
Also, if you want the cursor to go to the specified
cell, like l7, press f 5, type the cell info, and press enter.
Once you are at the cell, jaws reads the cell info.

HTH,
Ashley

Hello-How do I instruct Excel to read cells from two different rows using
JAWS?  For example, F7 followed by L7.  Thanks for the help.
