Thanks Joseph, I'll keep the message this time so I'll remember since I 
won't be doing this all the time.

Hi Troy,
In order to do this, you'll need to switch the Document
Presentation setting to Screen Layout.  This will allow JAWS to
place links and tables as if a sighted person was surfing on the
net.  In other words, the tables will appear like genuine tables
with each row on its line instead of each column.
You use CTRL plus Alt plus the Arrow keys to move around a table.
Cheers,
Joseph
