Combine tables in Word 2003

Try View > Ruler, you probably have tabs set that stop you lining up the columns as you wish.
You could also try Table > Table Properties, see if you can define the columns that way. And 'Options' from Table Properties, see if you've got 'automatic fit.
Finally check 'Formatting', Word often defines a Table format. Sometimes I've overcome problems with table merger by deleting this format using Format > Styles and Formatting.
