Repeating for each table in a document
I have written a short macro (pasted in below) that works on the current table that the cursor is in, but I want it to run on all the tables (except the very first one) in the document in one go.

I recorded this yesterday because I ran into a RTF doct. that happened to be formatted with first-line indenting. Didn't realize it until after running a text clean-up macro and saw the indenting so added this in below to the cleanup macro and it didn't work for the entire doct. Some of...

Printing invoice in Word 2003 from link on web page
Hi I am planning to create a dynamic website using ASP/Access. I thought of an idea to include a hyperlink from the website to open a Word 2003 document complete with VBA code, which (hopefully) would pick up values from the Access database and generate all the invoices that currently need to be paid. The invoices can then be printed straight off. I guess I would need some sort...
