Merging Tables to Make One Table
I see several posts concerning this topic with no useful resolution
("when I do it it works" is not useful). At the moment I'm attempting to merge two previously created tables with the same number of columns with "distribute columns evenly" and "autofit to windows" set for both. I have gone to "Properties" and cleared all specifications. I'm using MS Word 2002 SP3 with Windows XP, when I remove the paragraph mark between the two tables they do not merge. This is a continual, very annoying, problem. |

Merging Tables to Make One Table
The fact that no one can offer a solution suggests that there are times when
the best you can hope for is a workaround. I also have experienced this: a table that actually was a single table to begin with, which had been split and refused to rejoin. If it absolutely, positively has to be a single table, sometimes the best you can do is add rows to the first table and paste the content of the second table into it. -- Suzanne S.
