Hi,

I'm a complete novice with VB, so please go easy with me... :)

I have a MS Word document with two tables in it. I have 2 command buttons in it. When the user presses command button 1, I want TABLE 2 to be deleted. When the user presses command button 2, I want TABLE 1 to be deleted. Hope this makes sense... :)

In short I would like some advice on the script required to DELETE A MS WORD TABLE when a command button is pressed, utilising VBA.

Can anyone help me, or suggest an alternative way of achieving this?

Many thanks for your anticipated help and advice :D

Hi here is the code to delete a table

Sub Delete_Table()

Dim oWD As Word.Document

Set oWD = ActiveDocument

If oWD.Tables.Count <> 0 Then
    oWD.Tables(1).Delete
End If

End Sub

A small warning : When you delete the Table 1, your Table 2 becomes Table 1. You need to handle this in the code, either by using some document variables or by using some bookmarks. This will ensure that the intended actions happen
