Hello,
that sounds exactly like what I am experiencing. What does insert tab do. It
should be caps tab when working on a laptop I guess.
Does any one know if the problem is present in excel 2000 or 2007. Cause I
found it to be absent in 2000 and present in 2003.
Thanks

When setting up a sort in Excel, I have found that I some times have to
press down arrow a number of times before JAWS will read the items in the
dialog box for the column headers. There are other time that I cannot get
JAWS to read any of the items in this box and I have to guess at how many
times to press down or up arrow, tab away from the box and tab back.
Insert+Tab rarely works in this box.

Jeronimo,
When you open the sort dialogue box, you are in the edit combo box for the
primary sort column. If you use the up and down arrows, you can select from
the various available columns to use as your primary sort column.
Otherwise, you can simply type the column letter in. This combo box does
not require you to open the drop-down list with the alt-down-arrow before
selecting the column.
Tabbing once from here puts you in an identical combo box for selecting the
secondary sort column and so on.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Sorting in excel
Hello,
I want to sort data in an excel spread sheet.
I click on data > sort (translated from German). Normally there should be
pull down menus to pick from the column headings. Jaws presents me with text
entry fields. My wife however is able to pick a column heading from a combo
box.
Why does Jaws present this dialogue in such an odd way.
I worked with excel 2000 and everything was Okay. Now in 2003 there is no
combo box any more.
I am using Jaws 10.
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks
Jeronimo
