How to select a portion of a table ?

[dpap]

Hi,
I want to select, with VBA code in a macro, all the cells from
cell(5,3) to cell(12,7)
How can I do this ?
thanks in advance

Hi dpap,

It is not possible to select other than a rectangular range in Word. The
following will select such a range that starts with the cells nominated.
No cells in columns 1 and 2 or in any columns greater than 7 will be
selected however:

Dim myrange As Range

Set myrange = Selection.Tables(1).Range
myrange.Start = Selection.Tables(1).Cell(5, 3).Range.Start
myrange.End = Selection.Tables(1).Cell(12, 7).Range.End
myrange.Select
