I have been importing previous Word documents into 1 main one. The problem I am having is that the formatting in the new document is changed from the original document. My tables are all over the place, etc. How can I fix this so that when I import other documents I don't have to spend a lot of time fixing the formatting issues? Thanks in advance.
 
Hi Karen

The problem is almost certainly caused by different style definitions in the
two documents.

For more information see
Why does text change format when I copy it into another document?

Hope this helps.
