hi alan -

no, you're right. you didn't miss it. i just cut a piece of code
out of a large function.

i produced my range object the same way you did:

  obj_Range = obj_Document.Range()
  obj_Range.EndOf(6,0)

(went to end of range to be sure nothing interfered with adding table.)

you're right too -- i couldn't find a way to center a table either
(without putting it in a frame). sounds like a challenge to me, and
i like a challenge. your frame method is a good solution.

just found out there is a thing called a global template. that's gonna
solve a different poser for me. !!

have fun.
