I have a Word document (one of many) (150 + pages) which is laid out in tables in the document. I can delete the initial pages to reduce the main content to the tabular content. Every table row has either 2 columns or 3.


Col1 = Step No.
Col 2 = Instruction (long complex text >255 chars) which can also contain a blank sub-table
Col 3 = Text with underlining and space for someone to sign for the instruction


I'm looking for a macro to read every row in every table in the document to search for an identical entry (excluding Col 1 as this is unique). Note: these tables could be broken with a carriage return in places throughout the document.


Is this something that anyone can help me with?
