Apologies if this is entirely misguided, because I haven't been
following this thread very carefully, but I recommend looking at the
following functions: GetListOfTables, GetTableIndex,
MoveToTable, MoveToTableByIndex. If there's no GetTableCount
function, you could use StringSegmentCount on the result of
GetListOfTables to get one.

Hello,
Ok, I now know what is going on with my crazy table scripts. In the
old version (6.2) of jaws, all the table rendering took place by
looking at the HTML itself. Now in later releases, Jaws started
looking at the DOM instead therefore, when the script wraps to the top
or the first table, the dom takes preference over my column and row
variable and repositions the cursor in the first cell of the first
table.
So now my question becomes,
1. Is there a way to count the number of tables on a page and know
that number.
2. Is there a way to keep track of that number as it changes each
time it reads the next table down so I can do some kind of comparison
so that when I get to the bottom and go back to the first table I can
use a JumpToCell of the first table and start over again?
I don't know if this is even possible, but in theory it sounds good.
