Word XP

[Guest]

I have a long table/report in Word XP. I posted a comment in a cell on the
15th page of table. I no longer want the comment there however when I try to
delete the comment (by a variety of means), the last 2 columns of the table
disappear. Word 2000 did not behave this way. I am frustrated trying to get
rid of something I no longer need in the table. What is the solution?

I have a long table/report in Word XP. I posted a comment in a cell on the
15th page of table. I no longer want the comment there however when I try to
delete the comment (by a variety of means), the last 2 columns of the table
disappear. Word 2000 did not behave this way. I am frustrated trying to get
rid of something I no longer need in the table. What is the solution?

Does this happen generally, even in a new document? Or is the problem restricted
to this one document or table?

I suspect it's a form of corruption (likely the table). Does the table contain
only text, and is it a simple grid (no merged cells)?
