Hi

I have a job to produce which consists of lots of small tables on each page. I will be getting supplied with one excel file which contains all the information for all the tables.

I have found a great script which allows me to place the cursor in the first cell of a table and then lets me paste text into the entire table, but is there a way of getting a script like this to carry on and drop in the next bit of text to the following table?

I'm thinking that a unique character in the data could identify the end of each table and could then trigger the jump to the start of the next table maybe?

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Thank you.
