I'm using Word 2003. I created a Word form with several pages containing tables with two columns for a user to fill in (page sized side-by-side cells). The cell sizes have fixed heights and I do not want the cells to expand to the next page.

It occurs often enough that in the right side cell the user needs more space for report writing than can fit in the cell on page 1. The user has to watch as he/she reaches the end of the cell lest the typed material disappears out of the cell. As the user reaches the end of the cell space he/she then has to move the insertion point to the right side cell of the next page.

Is their an end of cell indicator that I can test for with a vba program such that when reached can move the insertion point automatically to the right side cell on the next page? I'm a newbie to vba; can anyone point me in the right direction. Thanks.
