Finding row/column of clicked object within a table

[simon1tan]

I'm trying to find the row and column of a checkbox within a table. When I click on the checkbox, I want to know what row and column I am in. Any ideas?

Skip,

so, you're asking the difficult questions first, eh, Skip?

Cheers, Glenn.

We could try an If...Then...ElseIf....... response ;-)

This is in a word 2010 table.

selection.Information(wdEndOfRangeRowNumber)
and
selection.Information(wdEndOfRangeColumnNumber)

Select the cell, then run the following macro, which displays the cell address on Word's status bar:

Sub CellAddress()
'This macro displays the address of a table cell on Word's status bar
If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) = True Then
  If Selection.Cells(1).ColumnIndex > 26 Then
    StatusBar = "Cell Address: " & Chr(64 + Int(Selection.Cells(1).ColumnIndex / 26)) & _
    Chr(64 + (Selection.Cells(1).ColumnIndex Mod 26)) & Selection.Cells(1).RowIndex
  Else
    StatusBar = "Cell Address: " & Chr(64 + Selection.Cells(1).ColumnIndex) & _
    Selection.Cells(1).RowIndex
  End If
End If
End Sub
