You mean it speaks the result of the formula and says it has a formula Peter From: dave-d0619 Sent: Wednesday, January 07, 2009 5:57 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Excel question As soon as you move the cursor over a cell that contains a formula, JAWS speaks the contents of the cell and announces "contains formula".

How can I get the results? Thanks.

To read (and edit) a formula that is in a cell, press F2. When you are done reading or editing the formula, press enter. Hope this helps.
