Default word tables using forms to insert x number of tables


Sorry , I have to admit I am new to this and I am totally guessing my way
through.

I have built a word document with a table in it, within the table there are
fill in forms (Text form fields?) for keeping track of groups and meetings.
I was hoping to have a text form feild which you select a number from ie 1
-10 ( for the number attending a group), once selected it would open up (or
insert) a predetermined number of sub-tables which all contain text form
fields to obtain the same details form each attendee, ie name, age, location
etc for each partcipant.

I hope this makes sense.

Any assistance on how to do this would be appreciated.

This is not exactly straightforward to achieve as not only would you have to
add the table and the form fields but the form fields would need the
addition of their properties configuring also e.g. they would need bookmark
names; but the example
"Add a row to a table in a protected form"
at http://www.gmayor.com/word_vba_examples.htm should give you some pointers
to the type of coding necessary,
