Next i
End Sub

PS. The code you posted is erroring because you are missing the word 'For' in the front of the 'Each ...' line

Thank you My dear .. this code works well , Also thank you for corrected the syntax error of my code ..

This will leave the first table.

You could also modify the original code method to introduce a counter e.g.

Code:

Sub Removetables()
Dim oTable As Table
Dim i As Integer
    i = 1
    For Each oTable In ActiveDocument.Tables
        If i > 1 Then oTable.Delete
        i = i + 1
    Next oTable
End Sub

Both methods are likely to leave empty paragraphs.

Thank you my dear .. your code works but it's deletes all tables accept the first one

Thanks for all once again
May God reward you
