Hi all,
I've had a rather odd one recently with Jaws in Excel.
I'm using Jaws 6.20 Windows XP Professional and Excel 2000.
I have been sent a spread sheet which is fairly regularly laid out with
columns and rows with no merged cells. I am trying to get Jaws to read Row
5 where the headings are. In the past this has been a really easy process
and everything works well.
This time, when I've been through all the settings and marked Row 5 to be
the row for the column headings, I tab to the "Close" button and try the
Jaws speech. The result is as if I've never set the settings at all!!
This is definitely not an issue of not understanding the basic concept as
I've done this process for hundreds of other spread sheets. It certainly
seems to be related to the time since upgrading to Jaws 6.20 (or possibly
Jaws 6.0 initially) but it worked fine in Jaws 5 and before.
Does anyone know if there is something that might be wrong with the Excel
file that might cause Jaws to ignore my settings and revert to the original
settings?
Yours rather puzzled,
Jamie
