Nicely done...
I tried everything but the view.

Yes, I have had this happen, and I have not really figured
out why, or a reliable way to stopping it.  Try the
following

Make sure your window is maximized.

Insert+ESC to refresh the screen

Alt+Tab away from the file or even away from Excel if you
have multiple
files open, and then Alt+Tab to return to your file.

Try different viewing options.  Maybe the view is set to
something really large because the last person to save it
was sighted and increased the view so that they could read
the material.

HTH,
Annette

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Jaws speaking random text in
Excel

        Hi folks,
 
I have an excel spread sheet comprised of 14 columns and 84
rows. When I cursor down any of the columns jaws reads text
from a previous cell in that same column. The crazy thing is
that the text being spoken is not necessarily in the cell
directly above my cursor, it could be from a cell four or
five rows above. This occurs with both Jaws 8 and 9. Because
it happens with both versions of Jaws I'm not convinced that
Jaws is the culprit. Mr.... Murphy and his law dictates that
this should happen in the midst of year end reports.
 
Thanks for any help.
 
TNX
