is all this information that you are providing me in the help as well? I
didn't see it there so this is why I have been asking so many questions...
and you have been really helpful but I am just curious if I need to start
doing a lot of reading.

Subject: RE: Excel and JAWS: the format plot area
Here's how I do it with JAWS 6.2 and Excel 2003. When I move to the sheet containing the chart, I press Insert + 3 to let the next keystroke through to Excel and then press UpArrow. That selects the chart area - JAWS doesn't tell me that directly, but if I press the applications key the first item in the menu let's me know, or if I open the format menu I can tell that way too. A second Insert + 3 and then UpArrow again and the plot area is selected.

but how do you select the chart without clicking on it especially when the virtual viewer is up and all it is telling me is the description of the chart?

aCathy,
When the chart is selected, you can get to the "format plot area" dialogue by opening the Format menu and choosing "selected plot area".

There is a feature in Excel called "format plot area" which if I can remember correctly allows you to change things like the background ofappearschart. is there a way to access this with JAWS? I can access the chart menu which brings up format options, but these are different to whatrepresentin the chart plot area.
