re: 3. Is it possible to detect whether a cell is overset (i.e. with a red dot)? This is how I've been able to accomplish your request. ' This is all contained within nested loops for: ' row_loop = 1 to the count of the rows ' column_loop = t to the count of columns ' count the text lines to see if it overflows and wraps to another line cell_lines = MyTable.Rows.Item(row_loop).Cells.Item(column_loop).TextLines.Count 'if it wraps to another line the text line count will be over 1 Do While cell_lines > 1.5 ' get the current tracking MyIn_Tracking = MyInsertionpoint.Tracking 'compute a new tracking of current - 10 MyIn_New_Tracking = MyIn_Tracking - 10 ' set the new tracking MyInsertionpoint.Tracking = MyIn_New_Tracking ' count the text lines to see if it overflows and wraps to another line cell_lines = MyTable.Rows.Item(row_loop).Cells.Item(column_loop).TextLines.Count Loop Good luck, iolaire
