Your post is cut off, it ends with
"Example: word docuement has "table four is next to table three" in excel I have a column" Nevertheless as far as I know you can't do vlookup in Word at all, you need to copy it over to excel 2. you can use wildcards in a vlookup =VLOOKUP("*"&A1&"*",Table,2,FALSE) as an example -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "pam" wrote in message ...
