word on an older windows machine to accomplish the table tasks. Very sad.

Subject: [macvoiceover] Tables and word processing
Ok, I've caught references to the inaccessibility of tables in the various
word processing options with Mac+VoiceOver. Usually it's something like, "of
course there's the issue with tables in Pages."
So, is there a way to access tables in a word processor using VoiceOver? I
can't recall reading this in any of the documentation I read before making
the switch. I read press releases touting the full accessibility of Pages on
more than one Mac accessibility site, but no mention was made of issues with
tables.
Is there a place to go to find out what's missing from reported full
accessibility, and is it known if there will soon be a fix or work around?
Not wanting to be a complainer here, I'm more thinking of the scene in
Apollo 13 where the mission commander says, "ok people, let's work the
problem."
Cheers,
Ian
