Where to find table information on a spreadsheet

Find?  Really need more information...

is there a place where table names are stored and the range in a table on a sheet can be viewed? Thanks

got it ... in upper right corner of spreadsheet. How do I change the range of the table to include more rows then table currently is using in a column

You mean you want to EDIT the Excel file STRUCTURE as opposed to the data in it?  Can you explain what you're trying to accomplish?  Changing a worksheet name or something?  If you explain what you need / why you need it, we may be able to answer your question appropriately.

Just add a row and the table will automatically expand.

And to find out if a table exists on the sheet you can use this macro. Change line 7 to match the name you are looking for.

Sub FindTables()
Dim intT As Integer

With ActiveSheet

    For intT = 1 To .ListObjects.Count
        If .ListObjects(intT).Name = "Table2" Then
            MsgBox ("Found")
            Exit Sub
        End If
    Next
    
    MsgBox "Not found"

End With

End Sub

Select allOpen in new window

You can also look in Formulas>NameManager, and the ones with the table icon are tables.

I have a worksheet where the filter was not picking up the rows when I tried to search for them. The table ended and the rows after the table ended were not being filtered. If I expand the table I can now see the rows.
But my logic is wrong if this is true "Just add a row and the table will automatically expand."
Can someone create a table with boundaries? or maybe created in another version of excel?
Thanks much for the help

I misspoke; it's not quite automatic. This is a stripped down version of a macro i wrote that will add a row to a table.

Dim lngLastRow As Long
Dim tbl As ListObject
Set tbl = ActiveSheet.ListObjects("tblHistory")
 
If (Target.Column = 1 Or Target.Column = 2) And Not IsEmpty(Target) Then
    With Sheet2
        lngLastRow = .Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
        .Range("B" & lngLastRow + 1) = Target
        .Range("C" & lngLastRow + 1) = Now
        .ListObjects("tblHistory").Resize .Range("$B$2:$E$" & .UsedRange.Rows.Count)
    End With
End If

Select allOpen in new window

Any idea why it did not automatically add the row?? thanks again

thanks
