  Rod, thanks for asking about a fix for the Excel column Title problem, and 
Dave, Thanks so much for resending your fix.  I use Excel daily and restoring 
this function is a tremendous help.

    For those who are salivating, awaiting more news about JAWS 12 and its
    effects on Excel, here you go...

    I alerted you that we lost the ability to read the upper four cells of a
    column in Excel, with the launch of JAWS 12. The reason is twofold: (1) they
    took the actual scripts out of the .jss file, and (2) The Alt+1, 2, 3, 4
    keystrokes now launch any Quick Access Tools that have been defined.

    So until (or if) FS decides to address this omission  I did the following:

    1. opened the Microsoft Excel 2007.JSS file from the JAWS 11 enu folder in
    the script manager.
    2. Located the four scripts that begin with ColumnFirst, ColumnSecond,
    ColumnThird, and ColumnFourth.
    3. Copied these four scripts in their entirety.
    4. Closed the JAWS 11 file and opened the same file from JAWS 12. Note that
    the Microsoft Excel 2007.JSS file is initially located in the shared
    settings folder until you make changes to it, then a copy will appear in
    your user settings folder.
    5.  Go to the bottom of the file and paste the four scripts.
    6. Then with the cursor on the first line of the first script Press Ctrl+D
    to open documentation.
    7. Tab to the assign field and use Ctrl+Shift+1 for the first.
    8. Save, and repeat for the other three, assigning Ctrl+Shift+2 to the
    second, Ctrl+Shift+3 to the third, etc.
    9. save and compile the scrip.
    Now in Excel I use Ctrl+Shift+1, 2, 3, and 4 to do what Alt+1, 2, 3, and 4
    used to do before JAWS 12 came along.


    If these steps scare you or you don't understand what's going on, I
    recommend you don't bother using them. Just badger FS to give you back the
    keystrokes they stole.

  All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I 
will in no wise cast out.
  John 6:37

  For the pious mind realizes that the punishment of the impious and wicked and 
the reward of life eternal for the righteous equally pertain to God's glory. 
Besides, this mind restrains itself from sinning, not out of dread of 
punishment alone; but, because it loves and reveres God as Father, it worships 
and adores him as Lord. Even if there were no hell, it would still shudder at 
offending him alone.  Here indeed is pure and real religion: faith so joined 
with an earnest fear of God that this fear also embraces willing reverence, and 
carries with it such legitimate worship as is prescribed in the law.  And we 
ought to note this fact even more diligently: all men have a vague general 
veneration for God, but very few really reverence him; and wherever there is 
great ostentation in ceremonies, sincerity of heart is rare indeed.  (John 
Calvin)
