Looks like I'm a bit late to this party, but AFAIK, this is still a problem in Word (I've only tried up to Word 2007).

I have not tried the macros mentioned in an earlier reply, but I did manage with a different workaround.

1. Convert the table to text
2. Copy-paste with markups
3. Convert text to table

There are two problems with this method:
a. The new table is unformatted, so the formatting has to be reapplied
b. Tabs and paragraph marks that are part of the changed test will be ignored, which will wreck the table structure. These need to be replaced with "clean" tabs and paragraph marks before reconverting to a table.

It's a messy business, but it does work.

Has anyone tried the macros? How well do they work?
