Thanks, I'll have a look.

B.N.


Following the advice given in the URL above I arrive with the
following:-



Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro created 05/12/2006 by Bill Nelson
'

End Sub

Again following the advice as above , I deleted the two lines between
"Sub Macro1() " & "End Sub" into which I then pasted your code given
in your post after removing all the "" symbols which preceeded each
line.

I thus arrived at the following :-



Sub Macro1()


Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
Dim atable As Table
Set atable = Selection.Tables(1)
k = 1
For i = 1 To 123 Step 3
For j = 1 To 3
atable.Cell(i + j - 1, 1).Range.InsertBefore k & Chr(64 + j)
Next j
k = k + 1
Next i
k = 42
For i = 124 To 201 Step 6
For j = 1 To 6
atable.Cell(i + j - 1, 1).Range.InsertBefore k & Chr(64 + j)
Next j
k = k + 1
Next i


End Sub

When I now attempt to run this -( by clicking F5 - is this correct ? )
- I get the error :-
"Run-time error '5941' the requested member of the collection does not
exist "

If I now click "DEBUG" I get the line "Set atable = Selection Tables
(1) " highlighted in yellow.

I'm afraid I don't understand any of this !
