How can I make a show/hide text box that contains a table? Cass Rymar 10/29/2008 5:37:03 PM Question is about MS Word 2003. I consider myself a WORD expert but I'm stumped. My office uses a document template which contains a table within a text box. The table/text box can be toggled to appear or disappear by clidking on a a "SHOW/HIDE GRID" button on the tool bar. I have gone through all the HELP topics and can find nothing about how to make this type of show/hide table or text box. No one in the office knows anyting about it. Can anyone help me?

You should look at the code that is being run when the SHOW/HIDE GRID button is clicked to see how it is being implemented in your case. -- Hope this helps.
