Do you know of anywhere I can find Jaws tutorials on excel from the beginning? The only ones I can find on the FS site are for specific tasks using excel. Thanks so much for any help -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Farfar Carlson Sent: Thursday, April 21, 2011 12:14 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: JFW 12.0.1158 FAQ for ExcelI alluded to an FAQ I received from FS. I haven't tried this yet, but if youhave a problem with Excel (like it doesn't even work, or some of the keycommands don't work) perhaps reading this treatise will help you. I may justwait a while to see what happens. The following FAQ has been posted to the Freedom Scientific web site: http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_support/BulletinView.asp?QC=1433 Bulletin Type: FAQ Bulletin Number: 60798 Date Posted: 4/20/2011 Product Name: JAWS Version: 12.0 plus Category: Excel Question: How can I get my older customized dictionary settings, frames, or labeled graphics to work in Excel with JAWS 12.0 Update 1 or later? Answer: Excel support has been redesigned for a more responsive and accurate experience. This redesign will affect customized Excel settings files created with versions of JAWS prior to 12.0. Update 1 (v. 12.0.1183, released April 2011). These changes affect the customized settings files for Excel 2003 or later. If you have customized a few Excel settings, you can re-create those customizations manually. However, if you have a large number of customizations, don't remember them all, or someone else generated them for you, you can re-label them for use with JAWS 12.0 Update 1 and later. The following instructions are for use with Excel customized-settings such as configuration files created by the Settings Center (JCF), structured Braille files created by the Settings Center (JBS), dictionary entries created through Dictionary Manager (JDF), special frames for Excel (JFF), or labeled graphics (JGF): Open the Start Menu and navigate to: All Programs/JAWS12.0/Explore JAWS/Explore My Settings. Rename the files Microsoft Excel.jbs, Microsoft Excel.jcf, Microsoft Excel.jdf, Microsoft Excel.jgf, and Microsoft Excel.jff to excel.jbs, excel.jcf, excel.jdf, excel.jgf, and excel.jff respectively. If the old file name included the version of Excel, such as Microsoft excel 2007.jdf, the version part is no longer required. Such a file should be renamed simply excel.jdf. Notes: If you are using Excel XP or earlier, you do not need to rename your customized Excel files. The files referred to here do not include any JSI files for Excel from your PersonalizedSettings folder. If you have customized script files that utilized the JSS files prior to installing 12.0 Update 1, or if you have customized JSI files for Excel in your PersonalizedSettings folder, do not make the changes described in this article. It is also not recommended that you rename JKM files in the manner described here. Please contact Freedom Scientific Technical Support for more information. 727-803-8600.
