Disabling (greying out) menu commands

[Sol Apache]

Hello

I have a few menu and toolbar commands which are macros which I created to
be used in tables only.

In order that users won't complain that the macro doesn't work when they
click on any of them outside of a table (even though the Menu is called
<Company> Tables), can I have such commands greyed out in both the menus and
a custom toolbar when the cursor or the selection is not in a table?

Thanks for any help.

Maybe, but it might be easier to include this in your code:

If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) Then
'Your commands
Else
MsgBox "The selection must be inside a table."
End If

Thanks Doug
I have been working on other things this past week, hence the delay in
replying. Your suggestion will help end users¹ confusion if greying out is
too difficult to do.
