Hello:
Using latest version of jaws 13, I was wondering has anyone encountered a
lag or focus with jaws after leaving the computer for a moment?
It's weird, I use the computer, I leave and come back for a minute and jaws
has trouble reading what ever window I am in. I found that if I unload jaws

Hi Jerry,
Another option would be to try the Hadley site using Firefox instead of IE.
I swithchbetween those 2 because they behave differently with Jaws on some
sites. For instance, Jaws doesn't see the submit button or link for paying

Hi
If you wanted to subtract the one cell c4 from c3, use =c4-c3. If you
wanted to subtract both cells c4 and c5 from c3, you could use =c3-c4-c5.
The original formula you sent says you want to subtract each of cells c4
through c20 from c3. You could use
=c3-c4-c5-c6-c7-c8-c9-c10-c11-c12-c13-c1

Jerry,
You can also install the demo version of Jaws 13 and try the site using it.
You may be running into an issue that is corrected in a later version of
Jaws. If I remember correctly, IE 9 came out after Jaws 11 was superseded by
Jaws 12. Also, you can try the site using Firefox, but don't e
I guess so, but in the meantime, why not try the suggestion, what ya got to

The more we use these keystrokes, the better they become second nature to
us, or at least that's been my experience.
Sometimes pressing Alt down arrow will show more stuff, but that might only
apply in a menu. Hec
No, I haven't tried that as of yet. I am waiting to find out what rabbits
Hadley will pull out of their hat. They did tell me, however, that it was
between JAWS, IE, or Vista. THAT certainly narrows it down, doesn't it? lol

No problem Jerry.
NVDA is a free screen reader for Windows. Many of the keystrokes which you
already use in Jaws work the same in NVDA. It is not as robust as Jaws, but
every screen reader user should have at least two screen readers available
to them, for those time when you encounter a proble

Hi.
You are trying to subtract correct?
Why would you add if you are trying to subtract?
I guess maybe if you want to add a column and then subtract by a given
number which is what that formula looks like.
