    When I place tables from Word 2010 the tables do not come over in the same fashion. The first column is outside of the overall table. Any ideas?

    Hi Ray

    Is it possible that if you resize the frame containing the table that it will all fit properly inside the frame? Had you simply done a Paste in Place, or, did you first draw-out a containing frame wide enough for the table and then paste?

    Also … can you check and see what your Preferences are set to for Clipboard Handling? To see, go to Preferences, then Clipboard Handling. In my version of ID CC 2014 I have two options, “All information” or “Text only”. For me, the Default setting was “Text only”. I assume you do NOT have “Text only” selected, else, I wouldn’t expect that you would be seeing a table at all.

    However … I ask the above in case you DO have “Text only” selected … and perhaps, then, the table you are copying from MS Word is actually an OLE object, and not a native Word table. Just a hunch.
