Introduction

List of issues fixed

This hotfix package fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

You use the Microsoft Active Accessibility 2.0 Software Development Kit (SDK) Tools to create a custom solution to programmatically determine the position of the cursor in a cell. The cell is in an Excel 2007 worksheet or in a Microsoft Graph worksheet. To move the cursor into the worksheet cell, you use the arrow keys, or you press TAB. When you do this, the custom solution incorrectly determines that the cursor is at the center of the cell. This is true if the cell is selected but text has not been typed into the cell.
