Don't you think that Apple doesn't feel pushed to work around that issue of
tables because many people virtual ice Windows to solve this? I don't think it
would be so difficult to make this accessible. I think that if the Voice Over
community makes pressure on the topic may be they will star working more
seriously on it. If no one complains because we have an external solution, they
don't feel it is so important. But More than one would be delighted if he or
she doesn't need to go back to Windows to make a table or spreadsheet.
Take care!
