Jumping to Tables

If you need to find tables within your documents, then there are several ways you can approach the task. The first is to use the Go To command. Simply follow these steps:

1. Choose Go To from the Edit menu, or press CTRL+G, or press F5. Word displays the Go To dialog box inWord 6 or Word 95 or the Go To tab of the Find and Replace dialog box in Word 97 or later versions. (Click here to see a related figure.)
2. In the Go To What list (left side of the dialog box), choose Table.
3. Click on Next to find the next table.
4. Click on Previous to find the previous table.
5. Click on Close when completed.

The other approach you can use is to use the Object Browser, which is available in Word 97 and later versions. Follow these steps:

1. Click on the Select Browse Object button. It is located near the bottom of the vertical scroll bar, and has a small round dot on it. A palette of objects appears.
2. From the object palette, choose the Browse by Table option. It is the one located at the right side of the top row.
3. Click on the Next arrows (the blue arrows pointing down) to find the next table.
4. Click on the Previous arrows (the blue arrows pointing up) to find the previous table.
