The following macro should do that, BUT make sure that you have a copy of
the documents so that there a no surprises if the result is not exactly what
you want
Dim MyPath As String
Dim MyName As String
Dim MyDoc As Document
Dim MyTable As Table
'let user select a path
With Dialogs(wdDialogCopyFile)
If .Display() <> -1 Then Exit Sub
MyPath = .Directory
End With
'strip quotation marks from path
If Len(MyPath) = 0 Then Exit Sub
If Asc(MyPath) = 34 Then
MyPath = Mid$(MyPath, 2, Len(MyPath) - 2)
End If
'get files from the selected path
'and set the AllowAutoFit property for each
MyName = Dir$(MyPath & "*.*")
Do While MyName <> ""
Set MyDoc = Documents.Open(MyPath & MyName)
For Each MyTable In MyDoc.Tables
MyTable.AllowAutoFit = True
Next MyTable
MyDoc.Close wdSaveChange
MyName = Dir
Loop
