Thanks for the info. That is useful info, but I finally realized the problem when I tried to call tableName() and it didn't work - my IT guys had never installed the latest versions oodoc, so getCellParagraphs() wasn't working (it wasn't working earlier, but I thought that was my fault). When they installed the latest version of oodoc this afternoon, getCellParagraphs() was able to do what I needed.
Thanks,
Matt
