I want to copy a table -- as a table -- from one document to another, but
my attempts so far have failed.

I've opened the table in the source document, highlighted the entire table,
used ctrl-c to copy it to the clipboard, switched focus to the destination
document, and used the Edit->External paste feature. I get a solid paragraph,
not a table, with this approach. I've also tried to copy the grey "table"
from the source to the destination, but get the same non-table results with
this.

  I've also searched on the TeXnik.de and wiki pages without seeing an
answer.

  Is there a way to copy the table from one document to another?

I have used this for some time but have just checked it out to see if it also works on 1.3.6

You first need to create a blank table with the same number of columns and rows as the original in your destination document. Ideally the same structure

Copy the source into the destination but make sure you have the cursor in the top left hand cell.

Sometimes, just sometimes, doing this copies the whole table as it is, ignoring your blank table.
