Try opening it in MS Excel.

Subject: What is this .xls document someone sent me?Re: urgent help with
document


it opens in Word, and down arrowing a few lines was like slogging through 
quicksand. I can tell it's a list of email addresses, each appearing as an 
active link, so putting Jaws in Say All wouldn't be what I'd want to do. I'd

want to be arrowing down through it. But what is this extension, and how 
does a Jaws user deal with it without such annoyance that he gives up and 
closes the thing, if he's me? I'd be curious to see what is on this list, 
but I'm not feeling masochistic enough to spend more time with it if I can't

figure out how better to navigate or read its contents.

Is there maybe a way to save it to another format that jaws can zip around 
in more easily?

Thanks,
Joel
