Is there code which will return the position of a cell within a table
relative to the page?

I have pictures inserted in a two column table and I am trying to use a
macro to insert shapes such as arrows in the center of the picture.

Hi Jim,

No, IMHO.

You may select the cell,
collapse the selection,
and see what this returns:

MsgBox Selection.Information(wdHorizontalPositionRelativeToPage)
MsgBox Selection.Information(wdVerticalPositionRelativeToPage)
MsgBox Selection.Cells(1).Width
MsgBox Selection.Cells(1).Height

Height (row), it seems, must have been set to "exactly".

Do a bit of calculating, and get the center of the cell.
