Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I have a similar issue and I haven't been able to find a work around yet.

I have a word doc that includes hundreds of pictures (jpg) inserted in cells of a table, with two columns per row. In each cell there is either one single picture or some text, never both.

I have been asked to go through this document and add a simple figure reference to each picture. I'm looking for help with a macro that can read the entire thing and add 'Fig. 1' etc, under each picture in 9pt Arial.

I'm a complete novice with macros and have only used those that other people have written; I have no idea if this is even possible, but help would be appreciated.

Thank you .
