Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that!
Thanks a lot Stefan

Apparently, I misunderstood your question.
If you are just trying to reuse the appearance of the table,
select it
and save it as an AutoText entry; it can then be easily inserted
as
necessary, in this or in another document.
If you need more information, see:

Thanks for your reply, this worked, but this links the tables,
rather than
providing a fresh layout for new information which I guess I
didn't
make
clear before hand.
Any thoughts?

After you've bookmarked the table, you should be able to
insert a
copy
of it by using Insert | Reference | Cross-reference: For
"Reference
type," choose "Bookmark," and for "Insert reference to,"
choose
"Bookmark text."
Note that if the source table (the bookmarked table) has text
wrapping
set to "Around" (on the Table tab of Table | Table
Properties),
the
cross-referenced table will have the same position as the
source
table. If you don't want this, you can set text wrapping to
"None"
and
use a frame (there is an Insert Frame button on the Forms
toolbar)
to
position the source table instead.
To update the cross-references, and all other fields in the
main
body
of the document, you can press Ctrl+A (to select all) and then
press
F9.

Hi,
I am trying to enable users to basically copy and paste two
tables
from a
page and copy them at the end of the section, but I would
like
to
have this
done automatically with a button in a toolbar. I have used
a
bookmark to
allow me to select the tables, but I can't insert them at
the
right
point.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tim
