Table outline disappears

Hi,

I'm translating a rather large document, but the source
document which is mostly a series of tables when copied/pasted
must have something wrong with it as the table itself disappears
leaving the text all over the place. It's upsetting because if I can't
preserve the formatting the work will take ten times as long.

Any ideas how I can 'fix' the table so that it doesn't disappear ?

Thank you,

Nash

The table may be corrupt. On a copy of the document, if you select the
table and then convert it to text (using the item for that purpose on the
menu) and then convert it back to a table, does that overcome the problem.
