Word – How to get rid of the extra space in tables with Microsoft Word 2003

microsoft-word-2003

I am copying and pasting tables from another document (Word 2007) over to Word 2003 and when I do this, right click on the upper left hand corner of the table, AutoFit, AutoFit to Contents, I am left with unknown spaces. These spaces are ones that cannot be deleted. They're like a paragraphing problem, but I don't know how to edit it. Anyone have any ideas?

How to fix this: Select the table, then right-click -> Table Properties. On the Row tab, disable "specify height" and you are golden.
