I'm having major issues with reformatting a document at work. Basically I've created these documents that are made out of 6 different tables. They're quite heavily formatted. I need to copy the first 2 columns from these tables into a separate document but can't do it without a massive change in format. The first document is the mother document of various position descriptions in my company and there are hundreds that I need edit. Is there a way I can take this information without losing the formatting? Just copying and pasting doesn't work for me.
I don't even know how to put a link to the document up here so I think I may be in over my head....
Please help

Have you tried inserting the tables (or columns thereof) using the "paste special" option, which is located under the "Edit" tab? Just a thought...

I actually found the problem. I have to set the "text wrapping" to none in the table properties. This fixes all the merging and alignment problems.
