Re: Is there a shortcut to insert rows in excel 365 using NVDA?
I'm also tired, as I should have said that inserting a row will always put that row ABOVE/BEFORE the one that you have focus on.
The CTRL plus plus sign command can also be used to insert a column if you have focus on a column rather than a row. If you do this, the new column goes in to the LEFT of the one you have focus on. The CTRL plus minus sign command can be used to delete a row/column depending on which has focus. -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041??

Jean,
? ? ? ? ? Also CTRL plus plus sign.? Use number pad plus sign, since if you use the plus sign on the number row it becomes CTRL plus shift plus number row plus sign. -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041??

Presuming you mean a single row, once you have focus on the row you wish to have a new row placed under/after, ALT+H,I,R

Re: Searching for any Tabs in a Word Document
I use this feature a lot also. however, I’ve never had to add a space – – and I usually tap into the edit box and hit backspace to make sure there’s nothing there.

Is there a list of symbols to get rid of things? I’m meaning tab, page breaks, spaces after lines, and things of that nature? It would be pretty nice to have since I’ve not been able to Google one up for myself. Melissa On Oct 1, 2020, at 4:12 PM, Jim Fettgather <jimfettgather@...> wrote: |
Re: Searching for any Tabs in a Word Document
Hello, I must do this all the time, so I use Find and Replace.

1. Launch the Find and Replace command with Control H. 2. In the first box, type ^T. If you do not have punctuation turned on just in case, that is a shifted 6 followed by the letter t. 3. Tab over to the Replace edit box and type a space. At least, this is what I type to get rid of all the tabs. 4. Press Alt A to Replace All, and that should do it.

Re: Annoying excel issue - reading cells
I restarted Jaws and looked in all the settings but nothing seemed different than it should be. I don't have specific settings for excel set. I looked around for a good 15 minutes, then gave up and restarted my computer. Problem solved! I still have no idea what was wrong but whatever it was it seems to be fixed now.

New Word and Excel Course Available
Hello,
I have created a course for sale through Commtech USA, an accessible technology company, which presents basic and advanced features of Microsoft Word and the basics of Excel for screen reader users, with an emphasis on JAWS though I also worked to make it useful for NVDA users. It includes about an hour of audio content, and some written material including quizzes so you can see your progress in understanding the audio content. I also provide support sessions for the course for interested customers, including answering questions about features which I may not have gotten to in the course. The link to find the course is here I know there are other resources for Word and Excel; this one should work for people who want audio content but cannot commit to weekly sessions. Best, Skylar Covich, PH.D. |

开云体育I don’t know if this is the cause of your problem but I’m wondering if your scroll lock has been turned on. Try pressing the scroll lock key and let us know if that fixes the problem.? ? ?David Goldfield

Re: Title of column or row in Excel
Barry,
? ? ? ? ? ? If you want to know how to do this yourself, I'm absolutely willing to discuss that.? I just wanted to create a functional example (or what I hope is a functional example) to see if this is what you were aiming for. -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041??

Re: Title of column or row in Excel
Barry, I would think that the only thing you'd actually need with actual headings used in the spreadsheet is the table for date/work/hours. All the rest of your fields would have the label read as you went down the first column of the spreadsheet prior to the table and I'd imagine the next cell over, a single tab away, is where you'd enter your data. Apologies to both Alan and Joyce, as I'm really not trying to steal anyone's thunder, but have a look at and see if it meets your needs.? I have included some spacing with blank rows since you say this will likely be printing this, and whitespace is important to us sighted folks! ? -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041??

Re: Title of column or row in Excel
开云体育Hi Barry,
This spreadsheet is definitely doable. Would you be putting more than one line of information per day? What I mean is, would you put 2.5 hours on September 24 for one task, 2.5 hours on September 24 for a second task, or would you be combining the tasks
into one line of data with 5.0 hours that day? Also, would you need a year to date total along the way?
One thing I can do very quickly is create a spreadsheet with what you want and the formatting it looks like you want and share a link with you. Please let me know if you would like to try and do this.

I'll be back later this afternoon US Central time and will open Excel to make sure I understand your layout. Hopefully, I'll post any additional questions and have some helpful recommendations.
