I doubt that the Save format is actually the problem; more likely it's a
setting on the Save tab of Tools | Options: "Disable features introduced
after: Microsoft Word 97."

The problem is that you're trying to save the document in Word 97 format.
Do
a SaveAs and check what's showing in the Files of Type drop-down.

When saving a Word doc with a standard table (created in the document) I
now
get a message saying "Some features aren't supported by Word 97.
Pictures
and objects with text wrapping will move above the table they are in."

I've tried reformatting the table and saving it in different formats -
no
go. Appreciate any assistance. TIA
