Shouldn't that be "Weird-ness?...:)

I love it!
“Word-ness” is such a wonderfully descriptive term (epithet?).

Yes, TableCleaner is absolutely indispensable when you're importing complete
Word documents that contain tables into FrameMaker. I couldn't do without it.
But for bringing in a single table (which I believe was the original query),
I'll stick with the convert-to-text-before-copying method. In my experience it
is quicker to apply clean formatting to the cells of one table that was built
from pasted plain text
than to fix all the Word-ness of a table that was pulled in as a table even if
you have a tool that does most of the work.

And don't forget Rick Quattro's excellent TableCleaner plugin, which can help
make cleaning up Word tables ever so much easier.
