Does anyone know how to autofill cells using VoiceOver with Numbers?
Visually, I understand there's a small control handle at the bottom of a group of selected cells. A sighted user can mouse down on that control, drag, and release, and the new cells are automatically filled based on the existing contents. I'd like to know how to accomplish that with VoiceOver.
Thanks.

Re: Auto Fill in Numbers
- Move to the cell where your sum will go.
- Insert>Formula>Sum or calculate by hand using SUM(B2:Bx) where B is substituted for the column you're working in.
- Copy the result of the formula.
- Highlight the other cells in the row at the bottom of each column where you want this formula to be active.
- Paste.

Hope this helps.Thanks
That's good to know for formulae, but what if I wanted a column of sequential dates? A sighted person could enter the first two dates in the top cells of the column, then mouse-drag down, and the subsequent dates in the sequence would be generated automatically.
