Default corrupt tables message

Lately I've been getting the message about a table in a document becoming
corrupt or unstable quite a lot. Has anyone else had this problem?

Also my tables seem to resize themselves - it's frustrating. It doesn't seem
to matter if I have the box in options clicked (resize automatically) or not.

Hope someone can help with these 2 issues.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm.

Note that in order to locate a corrupt table, you can split the
document in halves and see which half generates the error message.
Continue this process until you've isolated the problem table.

And to set fixed column and table widths, you can do the following:
Place the cursor inside the table and then choose Table | AutoFit |
Fixed Column Width.
