RE: Word tables to FM Tables?
Hi, Thanks for the help. Hi Jim, the link http://www.techknowledgecorp.com/public/word2frame.pdf was a great help. Carey, I'm afraid I do not use frame script. Jerilynne had suggested to convert the Word tables to tab delimited text, then copy/paste them using the Paste Special Text option. Once the text was in Frame, highlight the text and convert it to a specific named table based on the standards for template. This is feasible for my current situation.
