Hi Dave,
I'd like a keystroke that says the 1st cell of the column I'm in. Can I set
a keystroke to do that? If so, how?
Thanks,
Rod

Yep. They broke the scripts in JAWS 12 for Excel 2007. I found that out in 
the beta cycle and also reported to this list. You'll need to add new 
keystrokes to the Keyboard Manager for Excel.
Note that if you use the old ones for reading titles (Alt + 1, 2,3, 4) 
you'll then break the use of the QAT. I created 4 new keystrokes 
(Ctrl+Shift+1, 2, 3, 4) to read the top 4 cells in a column.

You'll need to do the same for the loss of JAWS+Ctrl+Shift+c.

Hi List,
               I need to hear the first row of an Excel 2007 spreadsheet,
and I can't get the keyboard command to work that is listed in help. Here's
what's in help.

Say the column title  JAWSKey+Alt+Shift+C

When I use that keystroke, I hear nothing!

I have Vista Home Edition using Jaws 12 and Office 2007.

Your help is much appreciated.
Rod
