Thanks.

I found the excel column and row headers link and hit the save button.  It then 
brought up an .exe file  which I went ahead and opened since It did not say 
save again.  I don't know where to find it now though.

Can you tell me where I go to read it?

Thanks,

Eileen

Hi,

Here is the direct link for the download specific to your request. It is not 
part of the JAWS basic training.

I checked and it appears that I did not install the training when I did the 
upgrade.  I looked at the list of training sessions and they do not specify 
what they are to download.

Would it be possible for you to just email me the list of steps or would that 
be too difficult?

Or is there an easier way to look at that one training session without 
downloading all the training sessions?

Thanks,

Eileen

Hi Eileen,  FS has a training module on how to set up the column and row title 
reading.  It is done within excel rather than with jaws.  It works really well. 
 you can find it on the FS training site and is called "excel column and row 
headers".  I just set up my time sheet with it.  The advantage is that it is in 
the spreadsheet so if you upgrade jaws or need to use a different machine jaws 
will still read the headers.
If you have trouble finding it let me know and I can try and help.
Regards

Tom Bisset

I had to do an upgrade to JFW version 12 5 2 5 and in the process I lost the 
JAWS options that I had set up for my timesheet.

I want JAWS to read the column name as I go across the row and the row name as 
I go up the columns.

In the past I had changed the JFW option window (insert plus v) with the 
following changes and with my cursor being in the A6 cell:

Title reading  on
Column titles to row  6
Row titles to columns A

However, this is not working.  Is there something else that I need to change?
