[access-uk] Tables in Word 2007

I have been using Word 2007 for several months and have gradually found ways of 
doing 
most of the basic tasks I require.  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.
