I am using Word 2000 and need to have a new table row containing protected
form fields automatically generate when the TAB key is pressed at the end of
the last row, so that the new row automatically contains the same form
fields.
I have reviewed previous questions and found some with references to macros
and I have tried the macro below, with no success. Can anyone tell me what I
am doing wrong? I am not famliar with macros, and I do not understand the
macro below, therefore I am probably making some major mistakes.
Sub addrow()
' Macro created 02/02/03 by Doug Robbins
' To add a new row to a table containing formfields in every column
' automatically on exit from the last cell in the present last row of the
' Table
Dim rownum As Integer, i As Integer
ActiveDocument.Unprotect
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Rows.Add
rownum = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Rows.Count
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Columns.Count
ActiveDocument.FormFields.Add
Range:=ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(rownum, i).Range,
Type:=wdFieldFormTextInput
Next i
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Rows.Count,
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Columns.Count).Range.FormFields(1).ExitMacro =
"addrow"
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Rows.Count,
1).Range.FormFields(1).Select
ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True
Thanks for any advise / guidance given,
LPS

This is a little vague.
What is actually happening when you try the macro (i.e. when you hit TAB at
the end of the last row)?
