Hi to all.

I ve been searching around but found nothing similar except the code i will paste below (hope to do it properly)
What i look for is to resize a table to specific rows and columns. How many rows and columns will be given by values in specific cells.

So in the following code i managed to find

Code:
Sub ResizeTable()

Dim rng As Range
Dim tbl As ListObject

'Resize Table to 7 rows and 5 columns'
  Set rng = Range("Table1[#All]").Resize(7, 5)
  
  ActiveSheet.ListObjects("Table1").Resize rng
End Sub

Is it possible to replace
Code:
.Resize(7, 5)
with something like
Code:
.Resize("B2", "B3")
with B2, B3 belonging to the same sheet with the table?

Thank you in advance

How about
Code:
Sub ResizeTable()

Dim rng As Range
Dim tbl As ListObject

'Resize Table to 7 rows and 5 columns'
  Set rng = Range("Table1[#All]").Resize(Range("B2").Value, Range("B3").Value)
  Set tbl = ActiveSheet.ListObjects("Table1")
  tbl.Resize rng
End Sub

Dear Fluff
Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately it does not work

Code:
Run-time error '1004':

Application-defined or object-defined error

Do you have a table called table1 on the active sheet?

Hi again..
Probably i was pasting something the bad way...
So now it works...THANK YOU A LOT
Something additional.
1)Is there any way that when i set fewer rows than the existing, data is deleted from those cells which now are left out of the table range?
2)Is there any way that the value i input in the cell reffering to rows to represent actual data cells?I mean we have the header and the totals in the table. Right now if i set value 10 in cell, i get only 8 clear rows.
