That's a quirk of pasting Word tables into Excel: Excel uses one row for
each 'paragraph line' in the source. It's got nothing to do with the rows of
the table in Word.

Help! I have been creating simple tables in Word and sometimes when other
people open them, they're all misaligned.

I just discovered (by copying a Word table and pasting it into Excel) that
whenever I add a hard return within a cell, it adds a transparent row. So
I
can't see the new row in Word, but I can see it in Excel. When I remove
all
the hard returns from my Word table cells, the problem goes away.

Has anyone experienced this? How can I stop it? I know I've used hard
returns in Word cells in the past without any problem.

Thanks for your help,
