First Post - Macro to paste specific columns only

[Jimbeambabob]

Hi everyone,



First post here. I have managed to teach myself to write basic VBA code and generally I can find the answer I am looking for by searching forums but this particular problem has me stumped.

What I need to do is create a Word macro that will only paste certain cells from a table in the clipboard. For example, if I copy a single row from another documents table with 5 columns in it and only want to paste columns 1,3 and 5.

Anyone have any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.

AFAIK, you can't do that from the clipboard; the contents there are all one object. In any event, if you know what the source & destination tables are, you should be able to replicate the data without going via the clipboard.
