Greg I remember when I was working a trick I did with Excel 2000 was to use ctrl G and then enter a column/row coordinate (i.e. A5). What this accomplishes is it places the cursor in the row and cell of a column I know was hidden. Even though not visible on the screen the cursor would go there and then I would select unhide. This could only unhide one column at a time but you could play with the idea and see if you could modify to meet your needs? Haven't tried in 2010 but most standard commands with the ctrl key have remained consistent so far. The only one I miss and have to find out the new one is in excel 2000 ctrl F2 used to read the formula in a cell and in 2010 that key stroke has a different function.
hope this helps Al -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com]On Behalf Of Greg Washington Sent: Friday, September 23, 2011 8:55 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Selecting multiple columns or rows in Excel 2007 My problem is that I have multiple columns hidden in a spread sheet, for example columns B to p. So I want to unhide only column p. How do I do that? When I am on column q and hit shift left arrow and select unhide columns from the menu it unhides all the columns b-p. the same happens if when on column A and I hit shift right arrow and then select unhide columns all the columns from b to p get unhidden. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Reese Sent: Friday, September 23, 2011 7:21 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Selecting multiple columns or rows in Excel 2007 Hi: Place your cursor in column B then hit SHIFT-right arrow to select both columns B and C. ALT-h O and down arrow to hide/unhide menu and hit spacebar. Highlight unhide columns and enter. Hope this helps. Reese ----- Original Message ----- Hello everyone, I am using Jaws 12.0.1170 on a windows 7 64 bit machine. I cannot figure out how to select multiple columns or rows to insert, or unhide. For example if I am on column A and columns b- e are hidden and I want to unhide just column B and C I don't know how to do that. When I use control+left arrow to highlight column A to column E and then hit alt h,o,u and select unhide columns of course I unhide all the columns from B to E, not just B and C. Can anyone tell me how to just unhide the columns I want and not the whole range?
