<div class="yiv1259059781MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;">I've tried copying straight from the clipboard (Windows 7)
but FrameMaker reports "No table cells on the clipboard." I'm guessing
that this means that FrameMaker is expecting to be pasting from one FrameMaker
table to another FrameMaker table. I've also tried copying via Notepad but I
get the same result.</span></font></div>

<div class="yiv1259059781MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;">Surely there must be a way of importing table data from
outside of FrameMaker.</span></font></div>
