Hi Mike, Your first two instructions worked great. I am using Excel 2010. I tried the last set of instructions for highlighting a bunch of lines. I could not get that to work. I must be doing something wrong. Could you please go over your last set of instructions for highlighting a group of lines. They do not quite make sense to me.
Thank you in advance.

Then press alt+I and then r. To read a cell character by character, position the pc cursor on the sell you want to read and press and hold down the JAWSkey and press the SayWord key twice quickly. For the desktop keyboard layout, that would be hold down the numpad insert key and press numpad 5 twice quickly. For the Laptop keyboard layout press and hold the caps lock key and press k twice quickly. Or if you have a numpad, you can use the desktop layout keys as well. To read a cell character by character with the arrow keys would require routing the JAWS cursor to the cell you want to read and making the JAWS cursor active. This can be done by pressing Rout JAWS to PC. To select entire lines to copy, Place the PC cursor on the first line you want to copy and press Cap+space to select the entire line. Then while still holding down the JAWSkey press down arrow to the last line. Now all the lines including the first and last lines will be selected. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Pinky Sent: Monday, March 21, 2016 10:15 To: JAWS-Users-List 2 Subject: [JAWS-Users] Three Excel shortcut keys I have tried looking up these shortcut key but have had no luck.
