[blindza] Re: excel 2010 windows 10 latest nvda editing

Does this work consistently across all excel spreadsheets?


Ask since just opened a brand new one here on my windows 10 64 bit machine, using excel 2010, and, NVDA, and, entered a value in A1, hit enter, and when went back to it, it read it fine to me.


Also jumped to ZZ50 cell, entered a number in it, hit enter, and, then when went back to it and hit f2, it edited fine.


In other words, are some of these excel workbooks/spreadsheets from external sources, or something, and, are they thus protected, or something?


Sorry, but, I have very little experience with using excel as such, so, can't help too much.


If you want to subscribe to napsa mailing list using your gmail address, since there are guys there with lots of experience using excel, I think you just need to send an e-mail to:

Blind-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx


That one, I think, with subscribe in subject line.


Or go to following page to do same, or edit options, etc.:

Hi
Because I am now only using my gmail account I can't get onto the napsa list so 
I hope it is ok if I ask here.
My problem is that excel does not want to let me edit using the f2 in a cell.
I installed windows ten only this week so am very new  to it.
It happens intermittently and sometimes it is only the last part of a spread 
sheet.
Also sometimes it says line feed after I pressed the f2 and other times it says 
nothing.  It seems if I can then edit, but the voice won't speak while I am in 
edit mode and moving around in the cell.
I have the same problem with a demo of jaws 18 and an older version of office 
2007.

I really need to get this fixed.  I use it to earn a little money.
Thanks very much for any help.
Daleen
