Default Macro to Create 2 columns of Table with 3-4 Caps letters abbreviation in word.

Hi All,

I am trying to create a macro that search for 3-4 capital letters in word document and presented in a 2 columns table with table headings "Abbreviation" and "Definition".
The user will have to enter the definition for each Abbreviations' found. I am new in this VBA code and trying to understand what are those codes does.

I have found these previous post, (With remarks described)
1) Acronym Finder Macro for Microsoft Word (this code gives the errors 1) "Requested member of the collection does not exist." and 2) run time error "5941" when I setup into the code)

2) Acronym Finder (This is a comprehensive code and well written however it is not relevant for my simple application as it looks for the defined abbreviations. Not easy for me to modify due to my VBA's competency level.)

3) Is there a way to derive the abbreviation from their full words spelling? (Same as link#2.)

Appreciate your help in this.
