The simple (but programmatically agressive) answer is convert it to text. Table - convert to - text (From memory) Then save as a .txt file. (No pictures or links will survive that) You can then close the original, reopen the text file and convert it back to a table. NOTE: All formatting will be lost. What is happening is those images are downloaded from the net each time you open the file. There probably is a way to just delete the pictures and links one by one but given the download time i suspect it is a large page/s you copied into the document, so my steps may end up the shorter route. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
