Suzanne,

I would like to add the following caution.

Deleting the paragraph mark between a split table, does re-merge the table.
However, the overall table properties can cause some bizarre split/merger
results.
This technique works best when both tables have identical properties,
including column widths. I know that merging tables with unlike properties
causes problems, but I am uncertain which properties become dominant during
the merge.

- If automatically resize to fit contents is set, then splitting a table can
cause the overall table and column widths to auto adjust in one or both
tables. re-merging the two tables could result in columnar mis-alignment.
Similar problems can result when the Autofit to windows option is set.
