Hi Chris, Remove the header rows and columns. I do this when I start a new sheet and VO starts saying A1, A2 and so on. If you create a new sheet, VO-Shift-M and select Header/Footer from the menu. Choose Header Rows and set the number to 0. Do the same for Header Columns and you're good to go. I find hearing column and row reference numbers kind of useless anyway, but that's just personal preference.
Hope this helps.
