Bob,
I just looked at the web site and am wondering if all the courses are on a
specific schedule with assignments due at certain times. Also do you have to
go through the whole enrolment process to take the excel course? Thanks

Hi,
If you have the time, you may want to sign up for a Excel class at Hadley
school for the Blind.  
I have just taken lesson 1 and I think they are very good.

Thanks, I did look there but couldn't find anything on excel. The only place
I found anything was on the FS web site but they weren't general tutorials.

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

Subject: JFW 12.0.1158 FAQ for Excel

I alluded to an FAQ I received from FS. I haven't tried this yet, but if you

have a problem with Excel (like it doesn't even work, or some of the key
commands don't work) perhaps reading this treatise will help you. I may just

wait 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.
