There use to be a macro in word to "fill down" a column in a table. I
need this macro for use in Word 2004. Can someone please pass this on
to me. Thank you. John Kays

It's not a Macro, it's an Excel command.

In Word, type the content of the first cell, then select the whole cell (the
cell itself, not just the content) and Copy. Then select all of the cells
and Paste. The content of the first cell will be copied to all of them.

But Word can't do a "Fill down" that increments a series, the way Excel can.
Throw up Excel, do your fill-down, copy, and paste back into Word :)

Cheers
