Well, I imagine you have return characters within the word table cell.
It may behave better if you do a find and replace on the table while
it's still in word and change all the returns for line breaks. From the
replace dialog in word, hit the special characters button to enable this
kind of replacing.

Subject: [mso] Re: Sorting a table in Word
Thanks for the suggestion, Ray. I ran into this problem: when I paste
the table into Excel, each line is pasted as a separate row, instead of
each cell pasting into a cell. So the first cell in my Word table,
which has 4 lines, becomes 4 separate rows when I paste into Excel.
What'm I do wrong?

I can help with this one, but you have to put the table in Excel first
(that's very easy, just copy the whole table to the clipboard, open
Excel, right click in cell A1 and choose 'Paste' from the shortcut
menu.
Now go to the articles page on my website:
http://www.grbps.com/articles
and choose the fourth one down ("Excel Formula Development") which
covers exactly what you need to do and covers all the complications of
mixed middle names, initials, etc.
