Hello Nicole,

 

Below is some information about adding an audio file to an Excel worksheet.
The first set of steps has to do with adding the Object command to the
insert tab.  The second set of steps has to do with adding an audio file and
the third set of steps has to do with playing the audio.  I hope there is
something in this info that you can use.  

 

Take care.      

 

Adding the Object Command to the Insert Tab

 

In Excel 2013 you need to add the Object command to a new group under the
Insert tab if it is not already found under the insert tab of the ribbon.  

 

1.      Use Alt+F followed by Alt+T.
2.      Press C to move to the Customize ribbon category.
3.      Tab to the "Choose commands from" combo box and press A until you
get to the All Commands item. 
4.      In the Available Commands list press O until you find Object.
5.      Use tab key and move past the New button.  In the combo box Main
Tabs should be selected.  
6.      Tab to the tree view and select Insert.  Open it with right arrow
key if necessary.
7.      Tab to the New Group button and press spacebar.
8.      Shift+tab back to the available commands list and make sure Object
is selected.
9.      Tab to the Add button and use spacebar.
10.     Use OK and go back into the worksheet.

 

Add the audio file

 

1.      Go under the Insert tab and press spacebar on the Object item.
2.      Use CTRL+Tab to move to the Create from File tab.
3.      If you want to use an icon then tab to the Display as icon checkbox
and check it.  At that time you will get a button for changing the icon if
you want a different one.  There is also a checkbox to link to the file.
4.      Use the browse button and find the audio file to insert.
5.      Use the Insert button and then the OK button.

 

Play the File

 

1.      Use Alt with CTRL and O, and then press enter key on the Button
Control to select the object.
2.      Use the application key and pick the Packager Shell Object menu
item.
3.      In the submenu press enter key on Activate Content.
4.      When asked if you want to open the file answer Yes.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Audio Files in Excell

 

How do I insert an audio file into excell? I found some info on
Excelltips.net, but no audio insert under object. I found a package insert,
but no way to play the package or place it in the desired cell.
