F8 in Word is only concerned with selecting text, F5 was the old
key-stroke before it was removed (in Jaws 6?).  I agree with Jason that
pressing a single key-stroke to convert a table to text is a significant
improvement on having to go into the Tables menu and select it from
there - this becomes particularly noticeable when having to convert up
to 30 tables in a single document.  
I would also be interested if anyone is able to suggest a way of
rehabilitating the old table conversion script for Jaws 9.

Best wishes

Robert

To all,
Wit the jaws function you only had to have the cursor in any part of the
table and then hit the key stroke. Yes, I know there is a function for
this in word, but the method I'm use to via JFW is easier and more
convenient for me.

Does anyone have any ideas on the function in question?

Why do u need it?  In the table menu of word there is a convert option,
w/a submenu, 1 of which is convert text to table, from whence u can
select delimiters, etc.  U first have to select the text u wanna
convert, of course, but this would surely be more effective than doing
it via jaws--I mean, generally speaking, if a program has a function
built in it usually does the job better than any screenreader function
which of necessity is not native to the application.
