Re: Converting Word Tables to unstructured Frame

2010-10-24 Thread Shmuel Wolfson
What I do is open the Word file in Frame, remove all ruling and shading 
from the table, them either some cells or the whole tale into the 
destination Frame doc.

Re: Converting Word Tables to unstructured Frame

2010-10-21 Thread Alan T Litchfield
In the end the most efficient method I have found has been to paste  
tables as text with tab separated values and convert those to a table  
in Frame using a predefined table format.


This often requires further adjustment, however. The added benefit is  
that you lose Word's formatting and various other undesirables.


Regards
Alan

RE: Converting Word Tables to unstructured Frame

2010-10-21 Thread Lea Rush
Assuming you're using Frame 8:

1.  In Word, convert the table to tab-delimited text.
2.  Copy the text out of Word, and use Paste Special to paste it into
Frame as plain text.
3.  Highlight the text, and select Table - Convert to table ...
4.  Choose your options, and click OK.

HTH,
Lea
