That's exactly right, and that can be done using either the mouse or the menu
Table > Select > Table, which expands any selection in a table to encompass the whole table.
That's why I was seeking the macro mentioned in my initial post. It would quicken the process and also help me to understand how to create a macro, which I haven't done before.

Code: Select all
# convert *one* table
Menu 'Select:Table'
Copy Table Text
Delete
Paste
voila!
