Default finding a corrupted table in word?

Thanks, Suzanne --I have tried, but as noted, the drop-down menu through
which Open and Repair is accessible is greyed-out. Is there any other way to
reach/select the open and repair function?

Wait, just thought of something --I will get into tools/customize/ and see
if the Open and REpair function is something I can put directly onto the
window menu...

I'll still appreciate any info you can provide, Suzanne, since it would seem
from your large presence in these forums that you are a total genius in this
stuff!!

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?
