Default Count of a unique letter in a column

Many thanks, Graham, apologies for the confusion, the customer not knowing
what its right and left hands are doing! :-(

The For i = 2 should work very well.
I will have a play tomorrow when I have time.

Jay, many thanks for the contribution as well.

DeanH has left the building...

It is simple to fix if we know what you are dealing with.

If you want to ignore the first table change the line

For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Tables.Count
to
For i = 2 To ActiveDocument.Tables.Count

however the following version will skip any table with 1 or 2 columns

If one or more of the tables have header rows then the following will also
ignore any cell that contains anything other than Y or y or N or n

Dim oTable As Table
Dim lYesDOC As Long
Dim lNoDOC As Long
Dim lYesTAB As Long
Dim lNoTAB As Long
Dim oCell As Range
lYesDOC = 0
lNoDOC = 0
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Tables.Count
If ActiveDocument.Tables(i).Columns.Count 2 Then
lYesTAB = 0
lNoTAB = 0
Set oTable = ActiveDocument.Tables(i)
For j = 1 To oTable.Rows.Count
Set oCell = oTable.Cell(j, 3).Range
oCell.End = oCell.End - 1
If UCase(oCell.Text) = "Y" Then
lYesDOC = lYesDOC + 1
lYesTAB = lYesTAB + 1
End If
If UCase(oCell.Text) = "N" Then
lNoDOC = lNoDOC + 1
lNoTAB = lNoTAB + 1
End If
Next j
If i = 1 Then
ActiveDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr & _
"Sub totals:"
End If
ActiveDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr & _
"Table " & i & ": Yes - " & _
lYesTAB & " No - " & lNoTAB
End If
Next i
ActiveDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr & _
"Totals: Yes - " & lYesDOC & " No - " & lNoDOC

Hi Graham, just to test I deleted the superfluous table at the start.
The macro works well, except it counts the "Y" and "N" in the header
row. Doh! Simpe to fix?

The following macro will total the Ys and Ns for each table and add

Word 2003 on XP.
I have a document that contains multiple tables, in each table the
thrid column contains "Y" or "N". I wish to count the occurances of
both of these characters, either 1) at the bottom of each table,
and/or 2) total number of both of these characters in all of the
tables in the document.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
