tables and translation

Hi
 
When we translated our manual from English to German via the Trados
translation workbench it turned out that many of columns in tables were
too small. The result was that a letter or two wre placed in line two of
the column.
 
I fixed this in the files I received from the translator but would like
to fix it in my English source so that I won't have to do this again in
the next release.
My plan was to open a copy ofthe English files and manually compare all
tables with those in the German files.
 
Originally I used tables from the table designer by I  fear that many of
them habe been manually modified.
 
Do you have any suggestions about how to handle the task?
I know that a Framescript can solve the issue, I am in doubt whether it
will be too costly compared to the one time manual work.
 
Best regards,
 
Verner
