Harry, Try using VO-cmd-t to go to the Sheets Table. this command takes you between tables within the given document.
I also haven't yet been able to have VO read the contents of a cell with a pop-up within. It allows me to select but does not read what has been selected when navigating through at a later time. I'll play some more to see if I can get anywhere. Later...
