[jaws-uk] Re: Converting non umiform tables into text

tried your suggestion, it says the conversion from table to text is 
unavailable. However jfw announces columns and rows numbers and different 
non-uniform tables in the document.
Lots of cells appear to be blank, some repeat when they shouldn't, some 
cells are filled by a symbol when I asked for the document to be stripped of 
pictures.
I'm stumped.

Looks like I'll have to oil someone sighted with a glass or two so that they 
can dictate or record the list that must be buried in there somewhere.
I'd rather done all that by myself and not to have to bother anyone.
Nevermind ... can't win them all.
