Re: Working with Excel 2016
Hi Steve: Just to let you know, I just opened a worksheet in Excel 2016 using the latest version of Window-eyes and when I pressed the f2 key, it took me into edit mode as it should.

Re: Working with Excel 2016
I believe it's a Window-Eyes issue, as NVDA and even Narrator doesn't have that issue. With Window-Eyes, the first time you press F2 to edit a cell, you can hear the cell contents when you use your left or right arrow keys. However, subsequent presses of F2 yields no audible results. I have written to support about this, and hopefully there will be a fix soon.
