Hello Yuma,

Sorry for the delay in answering you but I've been out teaching VO all day.

To select multiple cells in Numbers, place a hotspot on the first and last 
cells to be selected. If the first cell is the actual first cell, this is not 
necessary.

Go to the last cell to be selected, turn cursor tracking off, bring the mouse 
and do a physical mouse click. Jump to the first hotspot, or go to first item 
if the cell is the first, bring the mouse and shift-click.

VoiceOver will announce the number of cells selected.

This sounds messy but it's easy when you get used to it. I use the Trackpad 
Commander to find the cell I want, then I turn it off to perform the action.

Cheers,

Anne
