i'm trying to build a macro referencing data in one word document to
another. both are text within a table. how do i do this? tia
First, think about whether you really need a macro. There are other
techniques in Word that may work better. For example, if you bookmark the
cell in the source document, you can use an IncludeText field (containing
the filename and the bookmark name) to repeat the information in the
destination document.
If you really do want a macro, then you have to tell the macro exactly how
to locate the information -- the filename of the source document, which
table in that document, which cell within that table -- and exactly where to
put it in the destination document. Can you supply those specific
instructions?
There is a separate newsgroup specially for macro questions:

Please post your reply there.
