Word Document Protection with Editors causing issues with Tables

B

BillBQ

I am trying to use Editors inside a Word Document to allow access to
specific areas while the document is protected. One of the areas
includes a Word table. After the Editor is added to the entire Range
(spanning the whole Table) I am getting different results. Sometimes I
get a single Editor which works well and allows user access to the
Table properties dialogs, etc. Other times I get many Editors for each
cell within the Table. Having multiple Editor Ranges causes problems
with access to context sensitive menus for deleting rows, cells and
Table Property access, etc. Also, I often get the warning "This
modification is not allowed because the document is locked."

Anybody know why this might be happening? I'm not sure if the
situation depends on the contents of the table or how it was created or
what? However, I can produce two distinct tables in the same document
and apply the same code for creating the Editors and get one table with
a single Editor range and one table with numerous Editor ranges (one
per table cell).
