I couldn't see the text box without converting the table to text, but I
finally found the solution. With the table selected, right click on table
table properties, set text wrapping to None. Reset header row. When I
converted table to text with the text wrap set to None, I no longer had the
text box.

Convert the text box to a frame, then remove the frame. Ctrl+Z will back out

I can't get the header row to work and I read the earlier post about
removing the text box. I have definitely determined that the table is
in a text box. How do I remove the text box and leave the table
intact?
