Text box/table problem in Word 2000

[emcc]

I have a document that each time I convert text to a table not only do I get the border around the table but I get a line underneath the table and when I insert a text box I get a line inside the top of the text box. I can't remove the lines and I'm not sure how they even get there. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Not enough info.
-Is the text copied from web page?
-What is the original source?
-Have you tried pasting into note or word pad to strip away formatting then copying and pasting it into Word?
-Have you tried selecting text you are going to convert and strip away formatting (CTRL+SHIFT+N)
