It used to be==
hold the alt key
double left click the mouse
and then the entire table would be selected in Word 97, 2000.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, there is no really good substitute. If you have access to the
numeric keypad and NumLock is off, you can use Alt+Num 5. You can still use
Alt+double-click if you can stand to have the Research pane open as well
(and have it tamed so that it doesn't look for a connection if one is not
present). And you may still find this easier than using Table | Select |
Table (but a "keyboard shortcut" for that would be Alt+A, C, T (easy enough
to remember!).

There *is* a decent workaround for selecting a column, however. Alt+click no
longer works at all, but you can use Shift+right-click.
