SYMPTOMS
In a Word document, when you select a bordered table, copy and paste it
several times throughout the document, save it in HTML format, and then
view it in a Web browser, the table formatting will be different and some
text within the table will disappear.
CAUSE
The HTML converter, Html32.cnv, does not properly convert bordered tables
that have been copied from one part of a Word document to another part of
the document prior to saving it in HTML format. Further, the HTML
conversion from a Word document will not include the text of the cells in
the tables that were copied.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
This problem was corrected in Word 2000.
