Jaws 18 issues with Office 2010

Hi All,

i'm working at a company which has recently updated from Jaws 13 to Jaws 18 and we are currently facing an issue with the new Software.

1)Once you insert a table in word and try to undo the step with crtl+y(crtl+z in our case) it is not being removed, but highlighted instead. You have to hit the shortcut several times until it finally gets removed. This issue is not present working with Jaws 13. Can anyone confirm this behavior or maybe advise if there is a workaround available or anything else we could try.

2)How do i get Jaws to read the current formatting of an excel cell? I'm not a Jaws expert yet and i think i'm doing something wrong. Cannot get it working with Jaws 13 either.

Thanks,

Mat

Insert F is giving me cell font and formatting using Jaws 18 and Windows 10.

You will have to upgrade to draw 17 or later for the table later feature to work properly and outlook. Thanks, Johnny Martyn and a RTY and
