I want to also point out that vo can read floating tables and most other objects with little or no difficulty. When they are floating, they are found in the lay-out area. Also, you can convert an in-line table to text and back again. A text table has tabs as column seporators and new-line charictors as rows. You can also create a table in this way and convert it to an in-line table.
