Default Pasted table losing bottom of table

Hello -

I created a 2 page table using a preconfigured table style offered in Word
2007. I want to use this comparison table in my website. I save the new
table as all 3 web page types allowed in "save as". However, every way lost
some format and style enough where it can't be used (ie width expanding in
all columns making it exceed allowed width area breaking the site). The html
is a bit foreign language the way Word saved, so I can't edit it myself and
shouldn't have to anyway.

So the next thing I tried to do was to copy it and save it as an image. It
exceeds 1 page so I can't use PrtSc. So I did a select-all, copy, and then
attemped to paste it into both Paint and Photoshop. But only 3/4s of the
table gets pasted. It is highlighting entire table. I click on the
clipboard in word and when I select what it copied, it repastes ALL of it
back into Word.

Someone on the web suggested to someone else to copy all and use paste
special into Word and save as a picture. I tried that but it still cuts off
the last part of the table.

Any suggestions on how to get this table properly formatted and into my
webpage? I would prefer to use html so I could create a few hyperlinks from
my table, but at this point I'll take a image because I have to have it 100%
the same format cause I'm pushing it with width.

Thanks!

Split the table into bits that will fit.

I tried copying half and inserting as image, then grabbing the other half and
inserting as image. But the second half forced a header on top when I don't
want one. I tried copying the second half into another doc as normal and
then selecting "no header", but I guess because it's a predefined file, it
forces it back on. I just wish it would save as HTML correctly and I
wouldn't even have to fight with trying to make it an image. I'm so
frustrated with it because it's also maxing out my CPU so it takes 10 minutes
to do 1 minute of troubleshooting. All other programs can be closed and it
only started happening when using Word's predefined table style.

Did I try it like you suggested by splitting up bits? Thanks!

Did you split the table before copying the parts? If you split the table,
the heading rows will not appear on the second part of the table.
