Getting text under mouse cursor

K

Kallepalle

Hi,

I am currently developing a screen reader program, which is designed
for those less fortunate souls who have problems reading. I would like
tu support Excel, and am therefore searching for a way to retrieve
the text in the cell which the mouse cursor is currently pointing to.
I would use MSAA, but apparently Excel widgets are not MSAA aware :(

Can anyone help me out? Automation solution prefered, but VBA will do
in a pinch...

Sincerely,
Anders S. Johansen

Have you looked into XL's capability to speak the cell contents /
recognize speech? XL2002 or later have Tool | Speech > submenu. Don't
believe, but am not sure, that 2000 supports the capabilities.

XL also supports zoom capability (View | Zoom...)
