Then under the Format menu, press ENTER on Columns, then scroll down to AutoFit and press ENTER again. Hi in excel 2003 how do you auto fit the colloms so that everything written in them is visible? I know sighted folks just double click on the top of the collom e.g. On a, b or c. Thing is if i write something a little to long in a cell, jaws doesn't want to read it if i scroll over it, jaws just say text obscured in collom, or something like that.
