Aaahh. If I'm doing this right, I don't actually have a number. Mine is alt h, 
o, r.

LOL It's a bit of a fingerfull but ehh. It works. Thanks so much for your help. 
I never even knew there was a formatt bar as the ribbon is a pain in the ass. 
But I learned how to move sheets around as well. So much easier now!

  in excel the first three buttons in the quick task bar are already there 
example save as and the command is control s 1 this must take care of the jaws 
conflict. So hit alt h and arrow up or down depending where your quick lonch 
bar is and then arrow left and or right slowly and listen example when I hit 
alt h and up arrow I arrow to the right and when I land on format it says 
format alt 4 so if you do a alt 4 on my system it takes me to the dialog box 
for formatting and then if I hit r it takes me to rename sheet and it says alt 
4 r

  thus if you remember this then when in a workbook just hit alt 4 r and I 
would go rite to the rename edit field.

  note the number is assigned by the m s software not by you the user.

  If this is the first item you have assigned to your quick access tool bar it 
was assigned the number 1 so to access it hit alt 1 on the number row.  However 
with jaws you may need to hit jaws key 3 on the number row to pass the key 
through because alt 1 has a jaws function assigned to it.

      I probably did it the hard way but it works.

       

      1. press alt H

      2. arrow down

      3. arrow right until you hear cells delete

      4. arrow down once and you will be on format

      5. press the applications key first key left of the right control key

      6. arrow down to add to quick access tool bar and press enter

       

      This function can now be accessed by hitting alt plus the number to which 
it was assigned.

          I added the Format option to my Quick access tool bar and the rename 
sheet option is under it.  It works quickly and does not involve the jaws 
cursor or a right mouse click.

            Hey, I use MS office 07 and I wanted to know how I can name 
individual sheets using jaws. I've looked at the documentation and such, and 
they tell you, but it's all using the mouse and colors and such. Can anyone 
give me a keystroke or something? Thanks!
