It is possible to link a table cell to an artefact [because the artefact has an identifier]. This is done using the usual Add Link dialog.

If you want to add a link from the artefact to the table cell you have to select the table cell text and add the reverse link from the table to cell to the artefact [because the table cell doesn't have an identifier that can be used as the target of a link].

It is possible to select the text in a table cell and insert an artefact within the table cell but selecting the text displays context-sensitive tools that make adding / editing links difficult. Then there is a the problem of analysis i.e. what is the relationship between an artefact with a table embedded that has one or more artefacts within it ...These links also appear not to be viewable in the Link Explorer.
