Agreed, Plus you have better sorting and data handling in Excel.

I'm just curious, Is the layout of the table Portrait, or Landscape?
Have you tried to reformat the ENTIRE table with Column Widths of approx 
14%?
I've never liked Word's handling of tables...

Respectfully,
Ian  C. Bray

: Hello Peter,
:
: It might be easier to handle this table as an Microsoft XL spreadsheet. 
You
: could select the table, copy it, and paste it directly into an XL
: spreadsheet, and the table structure would be maintained.
:
: You can use control + space bar to select a column, then the applications
: key, then arrow down to column width.  You can widen each column to do 
what
: you want.
:
: You will have much more control of table-type data in XL than in word.

:
: Good morning again everyone,
:
:    Yesterday I posted a question concerning an issue we're having with a
: table of contacts. One of the columns includes a list of telephone 
numbers.
: JAWS indicates that this column is present when the table is read but the
: column does not appear on the screen or when the document is printed. We
: used Microsoft Word 2010 to create the document and its accompanying 
table.
: The table consists of 7 columns and over 100 rows of entries. All columns
: display visually except column 7. We need to know how to adjust the table 
so
: all columns detected by JAWS display visually and appear when the document
: is printed. We're using JAWS 14 under Windows 7 Home Premium if that 
helps.
:
:    There obviously needs to be a feature added to future releases of JFW 
to
: alert the user when a table is too large to display on the screen or 
printed
: out in its entirety so adjustments can be made to correct this issue. A
: remedy for this situation would be very much appreciated before the list 
of
: entries grows astronomically.
