Hi Kevin,
Thanks so much for this. I tried various things but never thought of this.

Subject: Re: Numbers Cell References being read with VoiceOver
Hi Chris,
Remove the header rows and columns. I do this when I start a new sheet and
VO starts saying A1, A2 and so on.
If you create a new sheet, VO-Shift-M and select Header/Footer from the
menu. Choose Header Rows and set the number to 0. Do the same for Header
Columns and you're good to go. I find hearing column and row reference
numbers kind of useless anyway, but that's just personal preference.
Hope this helps.
Kevin

Hello,
I am running Numbers using Mountain Lion on a Macbook Pro.
As I move around the cells with the arrow keys Voiceover says the cell
references in the form Column 3 Row 7. Sometimes it starts to read the
Column letter but this gets chopped off and the column number is spoken
instead. Is this normal or is there a setting I need to change? I looked
all through the Voiceover preferences but could not find an option that
looked anything like relevant.
It would certainly be better to hear the column letter spoken rather than
the number when moving round to find a particular cell. Alternatively, is
there a Voiceover keystroke I can press to confirm a cell reference? I
have not tried Hotspots yet but wonder if this would be a suitable use.
Many thanks for any help you can give.
Chris
