Table Object

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

TablesTable
Multiple objects

Represents a single table. The Table object is a member of the Tables collection. The Tables collection includes all the tables in the specified selection, range, or document.

Using the Table Object

Use Tables(index), where index is the index number, to return a single Table object. The index number represents the position of the table in the selection, range, or document. The following example converts the first table in the active document to text.

ActiveDocument.Tables(1).ConvertToText Separator:=wdSeparateByTabs
		

Use the Add method to add a table at the specified range. The following example adds a 3x4 table at the beginning of the active document.

Set myRange = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=0, End:=0)
ActiveDocument.Tables.Add Range:=myRange, NumRows:=3, NumColumns:=4
