Hi, Ross!
Actually, you did it just right. At least, if you followed your own directions you did. I followed exactly what you said and it worked for me. Thanks! Marcy

i am new but i will try to write how i deal with tables in numbers.
open the xls file
it asks you if you need to see some eventual errors  when trasforming
i choose no
then i need to arrive to layout area with vo to the right
interact
says table
and then reads a1,b1 ...
interact
reads the content of the cell
stop interacting move to the next cell and interact again.
i don't know if i am doing it right?

So, if I save the file as an xls, and then open it, will it open in numbers, as I do have iwork 9? Thanks! Marcy

Hi
The application, Tables will open an XLS document and you can read it with VO. Also, Numbers, the spreadsheet app as part of iWork 09, will do so as well. 

Take Care

Hi, everyone!
I was sent some information on an Excel spread sheet. Is it possible to read one of these with vo? I chose to save the attachment, and was given the choice of xls, tif, or pdf format. I chose pdf format, but when I checked the file, I couldn't seem to access any of it to read. Any help would be great, and I'd be appreciative! Marcy
