MS Excel 2010: Caret not tracked when rename worksheet field is initially focused

[nvaccessAuto]

Reported by surfer0627 on 2014-08-25 02:50

1. Open Excel 2010
2. Press Alt, h, o, r (rename worksheet)
3. Press arrow right, NVDA could not report character in caret.
4. Press numpad3, NVDA could report character in review.

Confirmed. Interestingly, you can work around this by alt+tabbing away and back, after which the caret is tracked correctly.

Technical: For some reason, we aren't adding DisplayModelEditableText due to the caret being in the window when it initially gets focus, but we do on subsequent focus. Hopefully, this isn't because the caret takes a while to arrive there.
Changes:
Changed title from "MS Excel 2010: rename worksheet / report system caret" to "MS Excel 2010: Caret not tracked when rename worksheet field is initially focused"

Does hitting alt and then esc also fix this? On some slow systems I've found it works better than going away and coming back.
