Hi Ann.

Responding to your message as below, I'm sorry to trouble you further , but my problem persists.

Your suggestion certainly works in Jaws 12.  However, when I
access the
Quick Settings tree view in Jaws 13.0.638 (using Insert+V) and then press T
as per
your suggestion, I still only get the following:

1. Top an bottom edge.

2. Text analyser.

3. Typing echo.

4. Text spell.

No mention of titles.   In fact, when I arrow down through the Quick
Settings tree view nothing comes up regarding titles at all.  So I am still
puzzled.  Am I still missing something that's there in Jaws 13 Quick
Settings about defining column/row titles?

Many thanks.

Barry Preddle.

Go to the quick setting with insert-v.  Tab once to the treeview, press t
twice and you're at the familiar title reading settings.  First, override
the whatever it says, then down arrow a couple of times.  It's all there
after you tab into the treeview.

Hi list.



Using Jaws 13 and Microsoft Office 2000 Professional.

When working in Excel I can define row titles that I want Jaws to read by
going to the column containing the relevant row titles and pressing
INSERT+CTRL+ALT+R. Similarly, I can define column titles to be read by
Jaws by going to the relevant row and pressing INSERT+CTRL+ALT+C.



However, these key combinations require somewhat tortuous digital
gymnastics.  In Jaws 12 there was an easier way to do these jobs.  This
was through the "Adjust Jaws Settings" dialog box (Insert+V).



Turning now to Jaws 13, The Jaws 13 Help   contains the following
statement:

(Quote) Defining Row and Column Titles.



 Before JAWS can read the titles of cells within a spreadsheet, you must
specify which columns and/or rows contain those titles. To define row
titles, move to the column containing the row titles and press
INSERT+CTRL+ALT+R. To define column titles, move to the row containing
the column titles and press INSERT+CTRL+ALT+C.

Tip: You can also press INSERT+V to use Quick Settings to define row and
column titles. (Unquote)

Contrary to the above Tip, I can't find anything in the Jaws 13 Quick
Settings that enables me to set row and column titles like I could do in
the Jaws 12 "Adjust Jaws Settings" dialog box.



Am I missing something here?



Any help would be appreciated.
