I'm not sure it's worth. I think it depends on how AT are going to use this. I mean if AT prefers to deal with rows and columns or it prefers to deal with cell accessibles. Btw, you know single cell accessible can be mapped to different rows and columns if row or column spans are used. So methods where row/column or cell accessible are used as an arguments are a bit different in not a syntax only. Alex.
