More to the point, I just tried using the table-making feature of TextEdit with VoiceOver (under the Format menu, Text submenu, when you are working in Rich Text Format) and this is pretty inaccessible. And you're right, you don't get enough information on where you are even when you are in a table. >Personally I use latex for this sort of thing so it does not bother >me all that much but I am sure it will be a major downer for others. >I sent apple an email just for the heck of it. Yup, I use LaTeX and it handles tables, but I can't imagine anyone deciding to use TeX or LaTeX just to handle tables. Cheers, Esther
