If deleting any text paragraphs between them doesn't work, then there's
something amiss. Sometimes this means they've gotten dislodged and are
wrapped (Word 2000 and above); on the Table tab of Table Properties, set
text wrapping to None. Sometimes having rows in the lower tables set as
heading rows can cause a problem. Nested tables can be problematic. And
sometimes tables refuse to merge for no apparent reason.
