How do I delete a text box(table) without losing the text within?

The good Witch,
Use Table - convert - table to text.
Or if you just want the lines to disappear, activate your toolbar Tables and
borders, and apply "no border", lines will become greyed out and will not
print.

How do I delete a text box(table) without losing the text within?

Is this a text box or a table? If it's a table, Luc's method will work. If
it's a text box, there are two ways:

1. Copy the text in the text box and Paste it outside the box, then delete
the box.

2. Convert the box to a frame (Format Text Box | Text Box: Convert to frame)
and then press select the text and press Ctrl+Q to remove the frame (or
right-click, Format Frame | Remove Frame).
