Default finding a corrupted table in word?

Note that you can manually locate the corrupt table by splitting the
document into halves; you'll see which half gives the error message, and
then you can repeat the procedure, until you've located the problem table.

I have had the same problem as Wonderful_Wilz --but can't access Open and
Repair function, which is greyed out in the Open.. dialog box. How do I
get
the Open and Repair function to work?

If it is available in your version, have you tried using Open and Repair?

When I open a large Word document with many tables, it tells me that a

table
is corrupt and to convert it to text. However it doesn't tell me which

one.
There are 100's! do I have to convert them all to text one at a time
save

and
reopen every time until I find the corrupted table?
