How to join contiguous tables into one table

Hello,
I had created a comma separated file to import into a table. It was a large file that had a few blank lines. So, I created a few similar tables. Now, I know for now I'll have to convert these tables back into comma separated lines and re-convert into a single table.

The question is: Does Word have the capability to join similar tables?

Yes, just delete the text paragraphs between tables, and they join.

Suzanne,

I didn't mention that I had scanned a document into Word. After posting the question, I viewed the document normally and saw a section break. After I removed the section breaks, all went OK.

Yours,
Uncle Bill

Ah, yes, that would explain it.
