I don't know what the message means, but I got a similar one the other day. I was using Excel 2003, JAWS 8.x on an XP machine. I was using a form to enter data into the spreadsheet. It appears that when I attempted to enter data into the third record (row) I got an "Unknown function" message. I do not remember the details.
Sorry I can't really help.
