Tables in XP/Word 2003 are a nightmare for me because being an old-fashioned
girl who learnt Office in the old days on 98, there are just too many bells
and whistles now in all Office applications, and tables are a particularly
bad example of this. So just a note to say to all the MVPs and people with
questions and answers on Word Tables that I could weep with relief that I can
always find an answer to my problem in this discussion group - even if it
does mean going through the current 28 pages!

I'm glad you're finding the help you need. Although it is a bit outdated
(was written when I was using Word 97 and Dave Rado was using Word 2000,
IIRC), the article at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/TableBasics.htm
has a lot of good basic information (and has been updated to some extent).
