Thank you both for your replies but sorry I should have explained it better. I 
do have the spreadsheet linked within Word and when I click on it, it opens in 
Excel, so it is working. But the problem is I can't find the keyboard 
equivalent to allow me to click on the spreadsheet. When I arrow down to it 
Jaws reads it. But as its an embedded linked object its not possible to 
navigate it as you would a table which is fine this is as I would expect but I 
don't know how to get it to open in Excel using JAWS. I can only open it by 
clicking on it with the mouse.

any ideas wellcome,

Thank you,
Carol
