Summary:

In Microsoft Word, when you create a table from text that has a style applied to it, the paragraph immediately following the table may take on the character traits of that style when the file is saved in Interchange or Rich Text format (RTF) and reopened (by clicking Yes to interpret RTF file format).

However, the style will not be applied to that paragraph. To correct this problem, select the paragraph after the table and choose the Plain For Style command from the Format menu.

To prevent this problem from occurring when you save in Interchange format, reapply the style to the table before saving. This problem occurs only when the table is created after the style has been applied to the soon-to-be-created table text.

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
