Hi again Mark, in addition to the help files, if you have Jaws10 installed go
to Jaws menu/Help/Check for updates. On the list of updates there're 3 or 4
Daisy training books that deal with Office 2007; a couple of them are
specifically about Excel 2007. It just occurred to me to look there! I reckon
that Jaws 9 and 10 are not that much different in terms of using Office 2007.
Hope this reply sounds a little more helpful than my earlier one :)
Cheers,
Amro

Hi Mark, looking in the Jaws help files might be a good start? But I know
what you mean about Office 2007; it's a real pain. I bought a copy when I got
my machine but ended up giving it away and I'm now very happy with my old copy
of Office 2003!
Cheers,
Amro

How do,
I am using Jaws 9.0.519 with Vista. I recently purchased MS office
2007 because when I purchase my new PC it didn't have MS Word Or Excel included
in the package...
I am finding this new Excel a bugger! My older version of Excel was very
easy to use with Jaws, mind it did date back to '97. However this updated and
new fangaled version I am finding very difficult to work around.What has
happened to simply accessing the menus by alt, the menu which pops up is very
minimal , I can find more menus using the Jaws cursor but still finding it a
mare. I have also tried Alt + H, in the vain hope of finding a Help menu but
then faced with some garbage about "Ribbons", what's that all about ?", If
anyone knows of any tips or a link to somewhere I can find any useful
instructions on using this version of Excel, I would be very grateful.
Mark
