Tom, Yes, I often forget/ignore the Application key when I'm in Excel. That's certainly a good consistent approach to both insertion and deletion dialogs.

If you want to insert a row then you place your cursor on the row where you want to insert a row above or below and hit the application key. Arrow down to insert, hit enter and you can choose what you want to do, insert a row above or below or a column to the left or right and other options. You can also use the application key in this way to delete a row.

Place cursor on the row to be deleted. 2. Tap Alt 3. Tap e for edit 4. Tap d for delete. You'll be in a dialog to allow different delete options. 5. To delete the row, tap R 6. Press Enter. Note that this is different from the insertion process, which is initiated with Alt+i. Alt+d does not seem to work as advertised. This may be due to Alt+d already being defined for some other purpose -- I don't know. If you want a consistent way to do both, then you should start either the insertion or deletion with Alt+h. Then for: Insertion - tap i and then r for row or c for column. Deletion - tap d, then r for row or c for column. Isn't Excel and other Microsoft applications fun, in that there are usually 2 or 3 different ways to do any particular action.

Then press alt+I, let those up and press r. Then I will be positioned on the new line. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pinky Sent: Friday, May 15, 2015 11:35 To: JAWS-Users-List 2 Subject: [JAWS-Users] inserting a line in Excel 2010 Hi Group, How do you insert a line in Excel 2010?
