Moving data between tables
I have two documents. Each contains a table with three columns. I'm
moving data from columns 2 & 3 in the "old" document to columns 2 & 3 in the "new" document. I'm doing this one row at a time (because each row represents something physical that I'm moving, and that takes time) Until today I'd select column 2&3 in the old table, and cut (Ctrl+x). In the new table I'd put the cursor in column 2 of the next empty row and paste (ctrl+v). This would put data from column 2 in column 2 and data from column 3 in column 3. Ideal. Just what I wanted/expected. Today, the paste operation is creating a new, single row, double column table inside column two of my new table. I'm too set in my ways to be doing anything differently, so what might be causing this? -- Steve Swift http://www.swiftys.org.uk/swifty.html http://www.ringers.org.uk |

table inside column two of my new table. That was simply WORD's subtle way of saying "I'd rather you reboot before doing that again". Too subtle for me, though. -- Steve Swift http://www.swiftys.org.uk/swifty.html http://www.ringers.org.uk |
