How do I Merge Tables in Word 2007
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? |

I followed your suggestion but they are still two tables. If you click on
table icon it only moves one of the tables Stanley "Summer" wrote: Delete the paragraph mark between them. "JohnP from Utah" JohnP from wrote in message ...

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. -- Luc Sanders MVP - PowerPoint "stan" schreef in bericht ...

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. An Angry Customer.

How do I Merge Tables in Word 2007
I absolutely agree with MikeMay. This is just one of the many moronic
features or non-features of Word 2007. I work in a tech writing environment where working with tables and graphics is a must. Our office just recently transitioned to word 2007. Revising word 2003 or older documents with word 2007 is pure hell! Do the MS word designers even know what they are doing? To paraphrase, it is like inventing a square wheel.
