Word: How to find out if cell is selected?

[Andrew Sheshko]

I'd like to iterate through all Tables in Selection object. So how to detect
if cell is selected?

Hi Andrew,

if cell is selected?

I don't understand exactly what you want. Do you want to know whether the
selection is in a table? Or do you need to know in which cell it is? You need
to be more specific...

Thanks for your responce. I just want to get First and Last column and row
indexes of selection in a table. That was solved using
Selection.Information(...) with parameters: wdStartOfRangeColumnNumber,
wdStartOfRangeRowNumber, wdEndOfRangeRowNumber, wdEndOfRangeColumnNumber.

Best reagrds,

Cell position, as in column and row index? There should be ColumnIndex and
RowIndex properties for the Selection.Cells object/collection, as well as
the Selection.Information property if you're dealing with multiple cells.

.Sections is not directly valid for tables; it's more at the document level
(section breaks).
