SYMPTOMS
If you select a table and try to cut it to the Spike, the Spike command
captures only the contents of the first cell. When you paste the Spike
contents, you insert only the contents of the first cell.
CAUSE
The Spike captures only the information up to the first paragraph mark. The
end-of-cell marker in the first cell acts like a paragraph mark; thus, the
Spike fails to see the contents of the table beyond the first end-of-cell
marker.
WORKAROUND
Select the entire table and the paragraph mark immediately following it
before executing the Spike command.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
