Thanks very much. It didn't occur to me to look in settings. This does announce colour and font changes. Just what I was looking for.

Hi Tom, When in Excel, you could try the following: Go into Quick Settings with Insert+v, Down-Arrow until you find "Workbook, Worksheet and Region Settings" (it is after the Braille settings), Down-arrow to "Formatting", Down-arrow to "Font, color, and attribute changes indication", Hit spacebar to check it. I haven't tried this. But, I see it in Quick Settings. It might give you too much information or it might be fine. Give it a shot and let us know if it works for you.
