The normative text for SC 1.4.10 specifically allows a horizontal scrollbar=
 for two-dimensional content such as "images, maps, diagrams, video, games,=
 presentations, data tables".

Subject: Table with a horizontal scroll bar

I am reviewing a table design that has multiple columns. In the design a ho=
rizontal scroll bar is present at the bottom of the table so the user can g=
et to the rest of the columns. Is this ok to do or will it violate 1.4.10 R=
eflow - Level AA. I'm not finding a lot of answers googling. Please provide=
 some suggestions on a better approach if the horizontal scroll bar is not =
acceptable.

Thank you!
