David you rock!! I am responsible for maintaining a website that I designed for a charity here in the UK. I upgraded my laptop to 7 a month ago and Dreamweaver hasn’t been the same since. Thanks to your fix, it’s all working swimmingly again. The tables thing had unexpected consequences like screwing the formatting six ways to a Sunday and stuff too. Now it’s working just as it did before and I’m really pleased. Neither the charity nor I have the money to upgrade.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Win7 has a similar file structure to Vista…consider upgrading from MX to CS2 at least

I fixed this a different way. I looked through these procedures but was very hesitant to replace a default file with someone else’s if I didn’t have to.

I noticed that the file in my C:\Users\XXX\…\Roaming\…\Table.htm had a size of 0B–i.e. it was empty. I simply copied the default file from the C:\Program Files\…\Table.htm and pasted it there.

Worked like a champ.

Thank you #51. Works great. Had to paste in 2 places. Took me much longer to realize the problem than to fix it.

I did install the update.

Then I pasted the new table.htm in the four locations, as above, because I had already removed & re-installed DW.

It worked

Since this app is no longer supported this was about my only hope for a fix.

Thank you very much.

BLESS YOU!
Those of us that are running older software take our chances with every upgrade, but people like you are such a blessing. This was perfect, took me less than 5 minutes to find the info and to do it. Now I have my old familiar tools back in working order!

From this day forth whenever I insert a table in Dreamweaver, I will drink a beer in your honor!

THANKS FUNKY TOWER!

Thanks – those were beautiful instructions. I only had to deal with the user … appdata folder. However, I even succeeded in changing the values for cellpadding and cellspacing – tho not, oddly, not width.

It’s really wonderful that skilled people like yourself are prepared to share your knowledge. This fix has worked (two paste destinations) and I can now insert tables again – with even more options than before. I was going slowly mad and losing sleep so THANK YOU – THANK YOU!

THIS WORKED PERFECTLY! Thanks soooo much! I only had to put in 1 path.The first path which is in Program Files. Don’t know why… I had my hidden files showing and when I followed the path from my user, only got as far as dreamweaver mx then the “common” folder was no where to be found so I just did the first path and opened up Dreamweaver MX and Table insert worked!
