Table Properties function disabled

[Jennifer]

Hi All,

I am unable to access the Table Properties dialog box for any tables in any
document. It seems to be disabled. It was working yesterday.
So far I've tried the following:
- opening new and different documents
- saving a document as .rtf (assuming that the document is corrupt)
- warm and cold reboot

Have run out of ideas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Word 2003

Cheers,
Jennifer

Problem solved!

A co-worker suggested that I close Word and rename the Normal.dot. This
forces Word to recreate it when Word is next started. This seems to have
worked; the Table Properties dialog box is back.

Cheers,
Jennifer
