If the table is purely there for layout purposes this will work but if it is a proper table i.e. data that is designed to be shown in tabular form such as sports results or exam results, then removing the table might not make too much sense.

Move onto the table concerned 2. Go to the Table menu and select the "Convert" option. 3. Move to the "Table to text" option and press Enter. 4. Select the way you want it done from the options and tab to the OK button. Job done. I don't have Word 2003 to double check this against but am pretty sure this will point you in the right direction anyway.

Can't for the life of me remember how it was done.
