Hello Wayne, When the cursor is in a table in Word 2007 or Word 2010, a design tab and a layout tab are added to the right end of the ribbon. In Word 2010, use Alt key followed by J followed by L followed by V. I don't remember if that is the same for Word 2007, but if not, use Alt key and then right arrow key until you get to the layout tab. Use the tab key until you find the Convert Table to Text choice. When you press enter key on that choice, or after using Alt followed by J followed by L followed by V, you will be given a dialog box to make choices. There will be a group of radio buttons that represent different characters you can use to replace the column breaks. The default is the tab key. Use up or down arrow keys in the group of radio buttons to choose. If you choose the "Other" choice, you can then tab to the edit box and press a spacebar to have one space replace the breaks in the table. If you choose "other", you need to add something in the edit box, the program doesn't let you leave it empty. Tab to OK and use spacebar after choosing.
Take care.

I copied and pasted some text from the website to a MS Word 2007 document. I ended up with tables that did not show on the website. In XP there was a command that removed tables and left just the text. I can't find tables at all in these new formats. Does anyone know if we can still select tables with text and give a command to remove them? Thanks in advance for any help.
