Is this a JAWS setting all must make to read the table column titles in the file? I might think so with the insert v command. If it is a JAWS option, is there a way to set it in the Word file so the file can be passed around to other JAWS users and have the column titles set in the table?

Incert+V to open Quick settings. Note: Tapping the space bar, will change the settings, in the quick setting list and enter will save your settings. Move down to Document-Specific Settings Arrow down to Document-Specific Settings, make your selection, it must not be set to off. Arrow down to Table titles and press the spacebar to make your selection and press enter. Now press Incert+space bar, then T for table layer. Now you can read the table with only the arrow keys, when you press any other key you will come out of Table reading mode. You can also read tables with Control+ALT+ arrow keys, or tab through a table, when tabbing you move left to right, to the end of the row, then move to the first cell in the next row. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Bill Tipton (ML) Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2015 10:04 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Word tables: JAWS 16 Labeling/ Reading column headings Hello, In Word 2013 with JAWS 16 is there a way for the developer of the Word file to add labels to the column headings in a table, so JAWS reads the column heading when moving around from cell to cell within the table? FYI: Keystroke I use to move around in tables is: Control-alt and the arrow keys If yes, how can I label the column headings correctly so JAWS reads them. I would prefer these table settings to be set in the Word file if possible so the Word file can be shared with other JAWS users so they will have no problem reading and editing the tables.
