Hi Keith,

You could try to save in HTML format, close, and re-open the file. In some
cases, this seems to get rid of the corruption.

If it doesn't help, you'd probably have to bite the bullet and track down
the corrupt table the hard way:

Split the document in two (about equal sized) parts, and check which half
gives the error message.
Repeat that with the corrupt part until you have nailed down the corrupt
table.

BTW, if the corruption survives saving in HTML format, could you mail me a
copy of the file to my private mail address? I'm curious if the HTML code
might show what causes the corruption.
I'd only need a small sample that contains the corrupt table.

Greetings,
Klaus
