Table Corruption in Word 2003 after upgrade to IE7

[Rick Putnam]

I've been experiencing table corruption in Word 2003 documents on machines
upgraded to IE7. When pictures are pasted into tables, the tables become
corrupt. Users are copying and pasting from the web (default paste as "HTML
Format").

What I'm hoping to understand is what is causing the corruption to appear on
those machines that have recently been upgraded to IE7.

Thanks.

For others who may also be experiencing this problem:
.. Rolling back to IE6 resolves the issue.
.. Copy and repaste "bad" picture using Paste Special; choose a format other
than "HTML Format".
.. Our best practices advise using Paste Special to select a picture format
other than "HTML Format".

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Rick,

Do you have a couple of URLs that demonstrate this behavior and a link to a screen shot or description in what way the tables are
corrupted?

Are Office 2003 and IE7 up to date?
