Thanks for your response. I select the table box, then I click the convert
table to text button. After clicking the button a dialogue box appears with several choices,"tabs, commas, etc." When I choose any of the choices given, the text is moved to the far left of the document in chosen format. Such as: commas after every word, etc. "Luc" wrote: Mom50, Your on the right track using convert table to text. How are you tryin to do it, and what happens precisely when you do?

mom50,
That's normal behaviour I think, when you choose commas Word will convert each cell to a comma each row to a paragraph. The best way to retain a table like result is to choose tab as a separator. But it may be necessary to adjust the result after conversion, tab positions and such. Luc "mom50" schreef in bericht ... Thanks for your response.
