Doug,

Thanks for this. However, now I get a very strange result.

I changed all the occurances per your instructions below. Now, however,
for
some reason I get a dropdown field ALONG with the text input field in my
form. Can you explain this?

Thanks

Replace

ActiveDocument.Tables(1)

with

Selection.Tables(1)

wherever the former occurs.

The lines of code a pretty self explanatory.

The only other thing that I would add is that the macro needs to be named
Sub AddRow(). That was omitted from the code as pasted.

Doug,

FInally got this to "work". However, I have a couple of problems.
1 - can you explain each line (what it does and/or is doing) please?
2 - I have a lot of different tables so need to access the first and
third.
Changing (globally) from (1) to (3) for the third causes an error.
3 - when I use the code on exit, the next row does not add any fields.
Am
I
missing something?

Thanks again for you invaluable help.

Not sure if the first one got through so I am asking again.

I want to have a table in my form. The table has text fields in
each
cell.
I need to have the table grow dynamically and have the text field in
each
new
row/cell.

Can this be done? Or am I approaching this the wrong way?

Thanks
F
