= SYMPTOMS =

The following error message occurs if you attempt to paste a table cell marker into an existing table in a Word for MS-DOS document:

Word cannot insert this text in the existing table.

This usually happens when you select a table cell or a range of cells and then cut or copy them to the scrap.

= WORKAROUND =

To copy or cut text from one table cell to paste in another, select only the text, and do not include the cell marker.
