Protection disappears when I copy and paste table to web

[AngieS]

Please help me. I can't for the life of me figure out how to make word or excel satisfy what I need.
Here's what I am trying to do:
I want to take a table and insert it via copy/paste into a web discussion board. This table will need to be copy and pasted into the "reply" on the discussion and edited (leaving some followup items from the previous posters until completed). This will be a continuous process.
Currently I have been doing this without any protection but with multiple staff editing this table several times a day the template becomes distorted in font, location of bullets, etc.



I have tried to protect the document in word via a "fill in format" which works fine until I copy and paste it into the discussion board and then the protection is gone.

Does anyone know of a program I could use or how to get the protection to stay using an office program?

Thank you in advance!
Angie

Hi Angie,

It is not possible to paste an MS Office table to a web page and retain any protection. You would need to re-protect the relevant portions of the table using suitable web-page management software.
