Hi Paul,

it worked - I am really happy!

thanking you again for your time and generous help.
These macros will really help me deal with all the table issues in my documents and minimize word crashing - I know it's hard to believe that word can be so temperamental with tables and columns - especially when you try to manually adjust - with large tables - its a nightmare, having to restart the document - losing changes not saved.

Programmatically changing columns with VBA is the best solution - but then I fall flat with my VBA skills. I am learning but some of the stuff -I can't get my head around - and end up confused.

I am really grateful for your help.

You're the man!

Have an awesome awesome week!
