[Trainer-talk] an issue with formulas in excel 2013

[Nancy Yeager]

The "number name" in excel is often because the column is too narrow, but
their may be other reasons.  You could try changing the width of the column.

Subject: [Trainer-talk] an issue with formulas in excel 2013

Hi all,
So, a student and I have run into the same issue, we were working with
ranges, part of the time, the edit boxes said nothing more than the title of
their box, even when doing insert tab, they would still not read the
contents, even while refreshing JAWS with insert escape.
One of the strange issues we had was when we would put in a formula, it
would say "#Name?" and jaws would announce "Has formula"
Has anyone ever seen this?  I'm not sure if it's operator error or something
with Office 13 and our network, I'm about frustrated and so are they,
because we're following the appropriate process, it's just not coming out
right.
Anybody have any thoughts or suggestions?
