Hi Douglas This is just from memory, so I hope it's right. Try alt a then s. This will put you into the list of things to select.

But there is one thing which defeats me so far, and I am hoping that some list member might know the answer. In Word 2003 there was an item in the tables menu which allowed selection of either a single cell, a row, a column or the whole table as required. This was very useful in making changes of alignment, clearing the contents of a particular column etc. The ribbon provides ways of doing almost anything within tables, except apparently this selecting process. I appreciate that mouse users would not need this facility anyway but there should be some way of achieving the same result when working with a screen reader. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. At present I have to periodically go over to an old machine running Word 2003 to perform actions I cannot do on my main machine.
