I have a similar problem from time to time. Jaws reads text from
another cell when my cursor is in a blank cell though, in my case,
it's text in a cell whose coordinates are the same as the one I'm on
but on another sheet of the workbook. I solve the problem by hitting
f2 twice to toggle in and out of edit mode and then doing a screen
refresh with insert escape. i generally do all right after that. I
use Jaws 8. Hope this helps.
