+RobustExcelOle supports
 
 - opening and processing workbooks across various Excel instances
-- reading and writing workbooks (cells and ranges)
-- reopening and unobtrusively opening workbooks
-- convenient methods for standard tasks (like opening, reading, writing, closing, saving workbooks, naming, adding, and copying ranges and worksheets)
-- dealing with various cases of Excel and user behaviour, e.g. managing conflicts when opening workbooks (e.g. blocking or unsaved workbooks),
-  even with simultanously happening user interactions

-
-  - removing methods to operate on ranges directly from an Excel instance. However, you can use the method Excel.active_workbook to do so.
-  See ChangeLogs.

+=== Reading and writing list objects
+
+We can define a list object (or table) from scratch.
+
+  table = ListObject.new(worksheet, "table 1", [1,1], 3,["Person","Amount"])
+
+This command creates a list object in worksheet named "table 1", with upper left corner at position [1,1] (first cell), with 3 rows and the columns "Person" and "Amount".
+
+A row in this table can be accessed with help of [], e.g.
+
+  table[1]
+
+Now we can set and get the value of a cell of the table, e.g.
+
+  table[1].person = "John"
+  table[1].person
+  # => "John"
+
+Likewise we can get a table with help of an existing Win32OlE table.
+
+  ole_listobject = worksheet.ListObjects.Item("Table 1")
+  table = ListObject.new(ole_listobject)

+   r4 = t4[1]
