You work for Contoso Pharmaceuticals. You are creating a report that describes a new medicine. Check the document for accessibility issues. Correct the table-related issue reporting in the inspection

Question

Explanation

This question tests the ability to use Microsoft Word's Accessibility Checker to identify and fix table-related accessibility issues by applying the tool's first recommended action from the inspection results pane.

Approach. Open the Accessibility Checker via Review tab > Check Accessibility (or File > Info > Check for Issues > Check Accessibility). In the Accessibility pane, locate the table-related issue listed under Errors or Warnings - the most common table issue is 'Missing Header Row,' which means screen readers cannot identify column labels. Click on that issue to expand it, then click the FIRST recommended action shown (e.g., 'Use First Row as Header'). This applies the fix without touching any other flagged issues in the report, satisfying the constraint to fix only the table-related item.

Concept tested. Microsoft Word Accessibility Checker - identifying and remediating table accessibility issues (specifically applying the first recommended action for a flagged table error such as a missing header row) without modifying other accessibility findings.
