<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, we have a student who is using an eye control device to interface with his computer. I am not quite clear whether it is an add-on device to his computer or if it actually is his computer. The URL to it is:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">He has recently asked me if there is an alternative way to perform various tasks in Excel, such as selecting text. These functions involve holding down shift+ctrl. He is physically unable to do this and his device does not have a typical
keyboard. I'm also not sure that he is able to use a mouse. The only other thing I can think of is if the options he needs are available on the ribbon - could he use his eyes to activate these controls?<o:p></o:p></p>
