Hi Ann,

When I left or right arrow (move left or right with the arrow keys) for each column, Jaws announced the contents of each cell as I move. When I move right to left from column B to column A, column A is announced.

However, when I am already in column A, and I move to the left again with the left arrow key, Jaws13 does not repeat the contents of the cell as it did in Jaws12. Sometimes I do this because I forget what column I am in and having Jaws speak that cell again refreshes my memory what I am doing. Hell, half the time I do not know what I am doing. I need to ask Mike to get me an appointment with Dr. Phil.

I hope that I explained this more clearly for you. I know that what I am trying to say may be confusing, but if one is not aware of the difference between Jaws12 and Jaws13 in this particular instance, one may not understand what I am trying to say. Some time, I am wondering if I understand it myself! (smile) Perhaps I should call FS?

Take care.

Lennie

I'm not sure what the problem is. Using JAWS 13.0.638, if I arrow from a2 to a1, JAWS reads a1. I don't remember, though, whether earlier JAWS 13's read it or not.

Or is that what you were trying to do?

Hi Ann,

Thanks, but I do that already when I do say word )insert+numpad5). I want Jaws to speak the contents of cell A when I left arrow column A as it does in Jaws12. This feature does not work in Jaws13 and I have to do insert+numpad5 to hear the content. Just another unnecessary key stroke.

Take care.

Insert-numb pad 5 reads the contents of the cell.

Hi,

I am using Excel 2003 on my desktop XP computer and Excel 2007 on my windows7 laptop computer. I am also using the latest Jaws13 on both computers.

In Jaws12, when I am in column A and I press the left arrow key, Jaws simply reads the contents of that cell.

However, with Jaws13, I press the left arrow in column A and Jaws does not speak the contents of that cell. I will have to do say word or move out of that cell and move back into it to hear the contents of that cell.

Is there any fix for this problem? Does the problem lies in Jaws scripts? Is anyone else having this problem?

I know that I can do say word, but when navigating with the arrow keys, I do not want to move to say word to hear the contents.

As I previously stated above, this problem does not occur in Jaws12.

Many thanks for any help. Take care.

Lennie
