Inserting a table [WiredBox.Net - Office Newsgroups]

> Hi,
> I am trying to enable users to basically copy and paste two tables

> After you've bookmarked the table, you should be able to insert a copy
> of it by using Insert | Reference | Cross-reference: For "Reference
> type," choose "Bookmark," and for "Insert reference to," choose
> "Bookmark text."
>
> Note that if the source table (the bookmarked table) has text wrapping
> set to "Around" (on the Table tab of Table | Table Properties), the
> cross-referenced table will have the same position as the source
> table. If you don't want this, you can set text wrapping to "None" and
> use a frame (there is an Insert Frame button on the Forms toolbar) to
> position the source table instead.
>
> To update the cross-references, and all other fields in the main body
> of the document, you can press Ctrl+A (to select all) and then press
> F9.
