The problem I'm trying to solve is a bit complex but any ideas will be appreciated.
We receive a word document with 32 odd tables from our clients (40+ of them). They fill in a bunch of details and then a team manually parses the information into excel. What I'm trying to do is to automate the process a little.
-The first step in automating it was importing the tables from word. I got a script from the internet which I'm happy to share with all (below). I ran the script X times, so now I have 40 (not yet, but getting there) tabs with all the info sourced from the excel file.
-The second step was retrieving info from different tabs to a summary page, based on selection
The problem that comes to mind now is the named range thing, and the issue is twofold:
- How to name 80 x 32 ranges (preferrably during importing)?
- How to ensure that the named range contemplates all the rows of the tables since customers might add an extra line if needed?
The script I'm talking about is below.
