Kathleen-- 

The parent of the cell is the table, and the parent of the table is a text frame, and the parent of a text frame is a page, and the name of the page is the page number.<g> 

So: 

Rem Given a reference to a cell "myCell" (and assuming that the text frame containing the table is not Rem inside another frame or group... myPageName = myCell.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name myPageIndex = myCell.Parent.Parent.Parent.Index  

I call this "climbing the Parent tree." 

If the text frame is inside another frame, or inside a group, it gets more complicated. 

Thanks, 

Ole
