When you set up the drop-down, start at the first
row of the sheet, not the first row of data.
Good luck!

I have a question. I cannot get drop down boxes
in Excel to read. JAWS will tell me thereâs a
drop down box and tell me how to access it, and
then he just says âblankâ. I had a sighted
individual tell me there is text in the drop
down box for selection. I called Freedom
Scientific and I was told this is an excel
problem. I was told I could press tab and then
shift tab and JAWS would read it; it does NOT
work. Â I have a student who needs this to do
her job. Does anyone know of any keystrokes I
can teach her to get JAWS to read what is in the drop down box?
My student is using JAWS 16 and Excel 2013.

I can confirm that Weather is now working in
Research It with JAWS 16. But to be perfectly
blunt, I really donât understand the
infatuation with Research It, anyway. Sometimes
it works and sometimes it doesnât. If the
weather option stops working again, you can
always get your local weather from Weather
Underground whose forecasts and current
conditions are just as comprehensive as those
provided by Research It. And Weather Underground
always works, so enter your zip code and save it
in your bookmarks or favorites list, and
whenever you want your local weather, just click on it:

Yep. Working here, as well. So likely problem
was that the weather web site had some sort of
glitch in its API or page layout. Hope it sticks.

Hi, Just now, the weather Research It feature
seems to be working normally. Mitch
