Default How do I Merge Tables in Word 2007

That doesn't work if Word has decided to split a table in two (or three) just
because you tried to reorder the rows in it. There is no paragraph mark to
delete. You're just left with a non-functioning table - every time you
change a column width for instance you have to change it separately for each
new "portion" of the table, and header rows do not repeat on pages etc.

Of all the moronic new behaviours that have been inexplicably added to
Office 2007, which don't make sense and weren't asked for, this is by far the
worst. I will be going back to Office 2003 as soon as I dig out my CD.
Office 2007 has more bugs than a turmite mound.

Stan,
Select your two tables, go to tables Layout contextual tab, in the table
group click Properties button, set the text wrapping to none, now try do
delete the paragraph marker.

I followed your suggestion but they are still two tables. If you click on
table icon it only moves one of the tables

I have two tables (one above the other) with an identical number of
columns.
Is there a way (in Word 2007) to combine these two different tables
into
one
table?
