Determine if a Word cell is merged

Question

I need to programmatically add and remove rows from a Word 2010 table. Unfortunately the header of the table contains merged cells, both horizontally and vertically merged. Th

Answer 1

When dealing with tables that might contain merged cells, you always have to start with CELL(1,1) and step through the cells using CELL.NEXT (Next is a property of the CELL object)

If you do that, you can interrogate what row and column the "current" cell is. You +can not+ reference cells by row col directly in tables with merged cells or you'll get the error you mention.

Then just continue through till NEXT returns nothing.
