Re: off topic. best alternative for M S Excel

As Sarah noted, Google sheets is an online spreadsheet service, as all the Google suite applications are and google drive itself.  So you access it with your browser, and log in with your Google or Gmail account.

Google have a page with tips on getting setup with a screen reader: https://support.google.com/docs/answer/1632199?hl=en

I think you'll find that you can't do quite as much as with Excel, but here is a page on how to import your existing Excel workbooks into Google Sheets: https://www.howtogeek.com/398570/how-to-import-an-excel-document-into-google-sheets/


Kind regards

Quentin.

No, go to I believe sheets.google.com there is no app to my knowledge that will let you do this. That would be nice though.

Hi,

I use Excel with simple tasks on a regular basis to keep a budget, to track my investments and to import my bank activities.  I haven’t encountered any serious accessibility issues to make the program unusable

Blessings

What are the issues you are having in Excel?  There are issues there, but I haven't found a better alternative so far.  Libre Office and Open Office are the main two options I know of, although neither is as accessible as Microsoft Office - of course it depends exactly what you need as well.
