I find the easiest way to select a column or row is to move to the first cell you want to start the selection with, and then press shift command down arrow for columns, or right arrow for rows. There are many other options available by entering the header with shift VO | (the key above the enter key). Once you press that key combo, you are in a list (vo doesn’t always announce this list). up and down arrow and press enter or VO space on either the column or row reference tab in that list, depending on whether you want to work with a column or a row. You then arrow right or left to move to the desired column, or up and down to move to the desired row tab. Press Vo Space on the desired column or row reference tab to select it. I believe that selects the entire row/column. Also, with the desired tab selected, press shift VO +M to bring up the context menu for that row/column. in there you can do all sorts of things including sorting and filtering data. Very important! Don’t forget to exit the header with shift VO | again when you’re done, to return to regular spreadsheet operations. Also, I think that once you exit the header, your selection is no longer selected, so do your copy etc while in the header. (I could be wrong on that - I just tried it quickly before writing this post). On Dec 1, 2014, at 4:01 AM, Sean Murphy <smur7...@bigpond.net.au> wrote:
