Default moving table rows in word 2007

Hi all,

This is one of those "it's so broken i must be getting the wrong idea"
things...

in word 2007 whenever i try to move some rows within a table, it splits the
table into 3 tables - the rows before the ones I moved; the rows i moved; and
the rows after. the 3 tables abut each other and I can't see any way to join
them back together into 1 table.

This happens every time in every document - it's not just a one-off
corrupted table problem. it happens whether i use cut and paste or drag and
drop.

the only way I can move or copy is to make space in the table by inserting
new rows and then copy the contents by making sure I only select the cells,
not the entire row (i.e. not selecting the end-of-row marker)

any clues please - am i missing a patch or something? this makes word tables
unusable for me with office 20087
