?
dim tbl as word.table
set tbl = wdapp.activedocument.tables(1)

If the activedocument has a table (or more), above lines
will give you a pointer to the first table.
(provided wdapp is a valid object variable pointing to the word instance
y've instantiated in yr Excel code)

Perry

thanks, Is there a easier way to skip a row and copy the next one and paste
it on another doc.

Sure but

Skip a row?
Under which circumstances?
Or just skip a row?
Meaning get data from second row?

If the latter, something like below code will do

Dim tbl as word.table
dim cel as word.cell
Set tbl = wdapp.activedocument.tables(1)
for each cel in tbl.rows(2).cells
Debug.print cel.range
next
