Hi All,
I'm using JAWS 6.10 with Excel 2000 on W2K. Recently, I've had a couple of
spreadsheets to fill in, which have a list of options you can choose from as a
way of completing some of the cells. When I move through the spreadsheet and
land on one of these fields, JAWS says "input message". Apparently, there is a
button to click next to the field, which allows you to open up the list of
options. However, I can't find a way of opening the list using JAWS, although
once someone else has clicked on the relevant button, JAWS can read the list,
and I can select an entry.
Does anyone know how or if, you can deal with these options lists in Excel with
JAWS? (I thought I'd cracked it, when I hit the Applications key, and found an
entry in the context menu, which said "pick from list", but selecting this,
didn't seem to do anything.)
Any help gratefully accepted.
