Hello Dónal, To access a table inside a file in Pages, you have to highlight it, copy it to the clipboard, then paste it into a Numbers document. The table shows up in Pages as a space, but it copies over to Numbers perfectly well.
You can copy the table back the same way. Cheers, Anne On May 25, 2010, at 11:44 AM, Dónal Fitzpatrick wrote: > Anne, (et al) Just a quick question.
