Your description of going letter by letter or word by word is
interesting.  Assuming V6 (I think) or later of Window-Eyes with the
correct set file, pressing any arrow key will move you cell by cell in
that direction.

 

But yes, depending on the content of the spreadsheet and the info you're
looking for, moving cell by cell can at times be very tedious.
Especially when trying to get an overall sense of the content, I use the
mouse keys to read line by line.  That will read all the visible cells
on each line.  When finding a cell that you want to interact with,
clicking on it will make it active.

 

Another option, again depending on content and purpose, would be to
convert the spreadsheet into a Microsoft Word file in order to get an
overall impression.

 

Contrary to Sandra's experience, I find XL spreadsheets in combination
with Window-Eyes a great resource when used appropriately.

Subject: excelle spreadsheets

 

Hi all.  for my classes I am given spreadsheets.  is their a way I can
scan down using excell without having to scroll across letter by letter
or word by word?

In otherwords can it read top to bottom giving me a clue where things
are without me going slowly across the lines from a1 to e1 or where ever
it ends?

thanks

Mike
