SYMPTOMS

When you merge revisions or changes between two documents in Microsoft Word, an added table in the document being merged causes all revisions following the table not to be merged with the original document. When this problem occurs, you receive one of the following messages.

Word 6.x, 7.x

The merged documents contain unmarked revisions. Do you want to merge up to the first unmarked revision?

Word 98

The merged documents contain unmarked changes. Do you want to merge up to the first untracked change?
If you click OK, Word merges the changes up to the table in the original document but does not merge anything after the table. If you click Cancel, Word cancels the merge and leaves the two documents in their original state.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
