Re: Speaking Row and Collumn Titles In Excel

Samara,

I think you're out of luck trying to have Excel '03 and '07 on the same 
computer. Excel maps into the Office suite and that defines the features.

Just like in Dan's case I have no idea why you both can't use the 
Alt+1,2,3,4 and Alt+Ctrl+1,2,3,4 key combinations to read the titles above 
and titles to the left in a spreadsheet. Are you certain that the cell in 
column 1 has data in the row you're in?

Subject: Re: Speaking Row and Collumn Titles In Excel


Okay, I did that, but it didn't do anything. Should I try it in an xls
file? I'm using xlsx currently. But alt shift c just gives you that
bump noise when nothing happens, and the alt shift r opens that stupid
review ribbon thing. I wish I had the simple 03 excel with regular
easy-to-navigate menus. I'll try...but are there any other
suggestions? Any idea if I can get excel 03 and still keep 07 on my
comp? Or where I can download it if possible? Jaws just seems to work
better with that.

Thanks guys.
