Apply column widths of currently selected table to all tables using VBA
Dear Experts:
I got a document with ...
... hundreds of tables.
... all of them have the exact same number of columns
Now I would like to manually adjust the column widths in just one (1) table and then by running the macro (with the cursor residing in the table whose columns got adjusted), the column widths of the currently selected table are applied to all of the remaining tables.
Is it possible to run such a macro?
And one more thing: One of the documents may have tables with just 3 columns, other documents may have tables with 7 columns (as I stated before, all of the tables in the documents have the same number of columns). The macro should be able to accommodate any numbers of columns. .
I wonder whether this is possible? Help is much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
Regards, Andreas

HI ThinkSpaceSolutions:
I would like to run the macro on different documents.
In one document for example all of the tables have 3 columns,
in another document all of the tables have 7 columns
in another document all of the tables have 2 columns
etc.
So the macro should be able to do its work in all documents. Within one document all tables have the same number of columns, between documents they can vary.
Thank you. Regards, Andreas

It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available.

Can you clarify this? Do they all have the same number of columns or not?
