  Hello developers - I have this macro which sits in a button and when clicked (the macro) removes the table directly above the button. Can this be fixed so that the macro only works once? Ie. if there are 2 tables in the document only 1 is deleted - then the macro ceases to work.. can you advise?
  Sub tableDelete()
  '
  ' tableDelete Macro
  'Dim nTables As Integer
  nTables = ActiveDocument.Tables.Count
  ActiveDocument.Tables(nTables).Delete
  '
  End Sub

Removing Table View In Microsoft Word For Mac 2016 Free Download

First off, let me boldly state the following that I am sure many of you can concur with: I AM SICK AND TIRED OF MS WORD! Thank you to everyone at Open Office for their time in making your AMAZING FREE OFFICE SUITE!
I haven't done much work with tables until recently, and I have come across a slight glitch (user incompetence)
I am using the most up-to-date Writer 2.3.1. Please review the following two screen shots:


You can see at the Red arrow there is no space, but at the Green arrow, there is a space. As you can see this is part of a List and I am using tables to get easier control over different levels of sub-lists.
I don't know how to remove the space below tables at the green arrow. I have tried everything I can think of.. My document is rather long with a lot of short lists and these added spaces taking up a lot of it. As for the tables above and below the Red arrow, I don't know how it did that! I have gone through many menus and I can't figure out how to get closer to the table below it. I think the tables in the Red arrow are corrupt somehow and somehow the space below that table was accidentally replaced or hidden.
My Question:

Removing Table View In Microsoft Word For Mac 2016 Manual

How can I eliminate the blank space you see above the Green Arrow beneath all of my tables? Delete and Backspace just erase the entire table or break out of the List!
