On the second question, I had good luck with the one that comes as part
of Microsoft bookshelf.  This package had some other cool features,
including Encarta, and a zip code finder.

Subject: Excel and Dictionary Question


Hello:

I got these questions from someone who uses JAWS 5.0.  First, he wants
to make an excel spreadsheet such that the first row contains headings
and as he goes down the sheet, the heading text such as Description is
read to him.  Is there any way to do this?

His second question is, what dictionary programs on CD work best with
JAWS?  This person doesn't like dictionary.com because he thinks going
to it caused him to get spam and junk mail.

Any answers to these questions would be appreciated.
