I could be wrong, David, but I believe that is incorrect. There has always
been a space between columns using Format--Columns, but I don't recall ever
hearing of one for tables.

In Word 97, there was a feature for setting the space between columns. In
Word 2003, there's no equivalent feature.

I have achieved the equivalent with the one-line macro command given
below.
But I shouldn't have to go to this trouble, and I haven't taken the time
to
build in a variable yet. Can anyone shed any light on why this feature
disappeared?


Selection.Rows.SpaceBetweenColumns = InchesToPoints(0.05)
