Hi,
When making up formulas in Excel, 2007 and 2003, Jaws 8 and Jaws 11 reads
the cells one navigates to as "blank.
Example:
Standing on A1, one presses = to go into formula editing mode. Instead of
typing B1 + C1, one can navigate to the right once, enter this, press the +,
then again navigate twice right to get to C1 and then again press enter.
My question is, if there are values in B1 and C1, Jaws reads this as
"blank". Although this is a simple example, when one needs to divide and
multiply with a lot of characters, even in different sheets, it becomes a
real problem.
Anyone maybe have a different way of doing formulas?
