Hello Alan,
You can use the "say all selected text" command to have JAWS speak the
selected range. The command is JAWS key with shift and down arrow. To
bring up JAWS application help use JAWS key with function key 1. Near the
bottom of the virtual window that comes into focus when you use JAWS key F1
there is a link to show you keystrokes to use in the active application.
Remembering Woodstock and feeling groovy
Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] In Excel, How do you hear "Selected Range"?
Hello Folks,
I am using JAWS 9 and Excel 2003, Xp-Home system.
I know I know this, but I am having a moment, probably due to those
"Woodstock Generation" days!
In Excel, if you select a range of cells, and I mean continuous cells,
like d4 to d10, nothing fancy, how do you then hear what was selected
after you did the selection.
I know you will hear as you are selecting the cells, but for example if
you forget what you selected, how do you hear what was selected?
One other question, what is the key combination to get JAWS Help for an
application, like Excel?
I cannot believe I have been using Excel on a job for eight (8) years, and
now that I am taking a refresher course from the Hadley School, I realize
I forgot just about everything I did not use on a day to day basis, I
remembered just what was necessary to do my work!
I guess I was like a trained monkey sort to speak! (Smile)
Thanking you kindly in advance.
With Best Regards,
Alan Dicey
