Hi Nadine,
I have been watching this thread with interest, since I am the author of the
TableCleaner plugin that others recommended. I will be honest and say that I
developed TableCleaner, not in the spirit of open source, but because I
wanted to solve the problems associated with working with tab
Tables not FM's strong point? Hmmm, I haven't heard that one before, Nadine.
I've seen a prepress company buying FM only for its powerful table features.
They had to produce travel catalogs of several hundreds of pages full of
tables and pictures and they couldn't get the job done with Quark XPress
In circumstances where employers expect/demand more productivity from
fewer workers working longer hours and are professionals not on hourly
pay, there's no "please, I want some more from you," it's just "I want
more or else."
The roll of FrameMaker productivity plug-ins is not endless. Most give
have come up with some very clever
solutions to unusaul requirements.

Same here ... I have not looked much, but, like you, I use FrameMaker 8
and Word 2007 (different purposes) and I definitely prefer FM to Word
for the table handling.
Is there some other product that works

Actually, I'd take the opposite viewpoint.
Because users have different needs, there should be a larger multitude
of plug-ins to accommodate those specializations and unique needs and
ways of working.

Different users have different needs, and FM tables don't meet mine.
As to the OP's op, we shouldn't have to have a multitude of plug-ins for
FM. It should work the way it should work.

As you say, different users have different needs, but that does not mean
the tool is wrong in how it goes about it's work. Frame does work the way it
should, you just don't like or agree with how it defines that.
Word should too, and not reformat documents on a whim or renumber items
willy-nil

You're missing Rick Quatro's TableCleaner plug in, a great tool that
does this conversion as well as a host of other table-related stuff.
It's a critical piece of my tool kit...

I have found that tables have never been FM's strong point. What I find
especially annoying is the inability to split rows across pages.
