Could anyone tell me how to add/insert more than one new row (ie a
specified number of new rows) in an existing table please? (Word 2007,
Win XP). Thanks.

Select a number of existing rows, then go to the Table Tools Layout tab of the
ribbon and click either Insert Above or Insert Below. An equal number of rows
will be added above or below the selected ones.

If you want to use a macro, this one will add as many rows as you tell it to,
even if it's more than already exist (see
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm if needed):

Sub AddRowsToEnd()
Dim strRows As String
Dim nRows As Long, i As Long
Dim Tbl As Table

If Not Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) _
Then Exit Sub

strRows = InputBox("Number of rows to add", _
"Add rows to end of table")
If Len(strRows) = 0 Then Exit Sub ' canceled

nRows = Val(strRows)
If nRows 0 Then
Set Tbl = Selection.Tables(1)
For i = 1 To nRows
Tbl.Rows.Add
Next
Set Tbl = Nothing
End If
End Sub

It seems a bit convoluted! A simple right-click in WordPerfect.

Nevertheless, many thanks for your prompt and clear reply.
