Am I missing something? When you are within a table in a particular row

Maybe you're thinking of another program... Word has never displayed
table row and column location. To do that you need an add-in.

Long ago, one version of Word shipped with a template named
Macros8.dot that included a macro called TableCellHelper. That file is
available for download from http://word.mvps.org/downloads, and the
macro still works in Word 2007. It's rather clumsy by today's
standards, but it will tell you what cell you're in.
