The text in each cell will be different.
Im currently updating each cell individually, but I havent tried Gregs
..Next property/method €“I imagine that has to be faster than indexing into the
table using the Cell object.
What Im really trying to find out is: Does anyone know THE FASTEST METHOD
(from the users perspective) of accomplishing this?
I thought pasting would be even faster than snaking through each cell, but
it doesnt seem like anyone wants to touch this one (or is it just a silly
assumption?).

Is the string of characters for each cell the same? Is there a reason you
can't modify the macro Greg provided to fit your needs? All you need to do
is change: oCell.Range.Text = i & "." to oCell.Range.Text = "Your string of
characters".
Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.

No problem, Beth, I'll do my best...
I have a table with one hundred rows and I know exactly what I want each
cell to contain -a string of characters.
What is the quickest way to populate that table programmatically?
Accessing each cell individually is pretty slow, especially if I'm doing
this for 200 tables. Excel allows you to populate a Sheet using an array
and
I know Word will convert text formatted with tabs and carriage returns
into a
table, but how do I quickly populate a table that already exists?
At this point, it looks like the answer may be the Windows
clipboard -which
I'm now trying to figure out how to access/populate from VBA.
Thank you for your patience,
