How copy row cells of one table to another?

[Guest]

If I have 2 tables with the same number of columns, how do I copy a series of
rows from the middle of one table into the middle of another table
e.g. assuming 2 tables t1 and t2:

t1 r1
t1 r2
t1 r3
t1 r4

t2 r1
t2 r2
t2 r3
t2 r4

I need to end up with

t2 r1
t2 r2
t1 r2
t1 r3
t2 r3
t2 r4

You can do it as described below – I hope the additional comments will help
you.

In the first table, select* the rows you want to copy. Press Ctrl+C to copy
the rows.

* If you turn on formatting marks (e.g. by clicking the ¶ icon in the
Standard toolbar), you will see that all rows end with an “end of row markerâ€
that looks like this: ¤. Whenever you want to cut or copy an entire row, you
must make sure to include the “end of row marker†in the selection. An easy
way to select entire rows: Move the cursor to the left of the table until it
looks as a white arrow with a black outline. Then click to select a single
row. To select more rows, press and hold the mouse button while you drag
along the rows you want to select.

To paste the rows in the second table:
Click to position the insertion point in the _first_ cell in the row
immediately _below_ the position where you want to insert the copied rows.
Press Ctrl+V or right-click and select “Paste Rows†from the pop-up menu.

In general, pasted rows will appear with the same number of columns and the
same column widths as when copied.
