Pages v5: Same document: table to text/text to table.

Pages '09 permitted us to select one of two menu items to convert selected tables or text to their opposite. No release of Pages v5 has this feature, and has forced creative solutions to overcome this issue.

The following graphic shows how to translate tables into text, and text into tables while in the same document. No more copying to external applications, and then back into Pages v5. Bookmark this post for future reference.
