Why does FM not create a table element in the conversion table process?

Question

I am trying to create a structured version of one of my templates, but it is not going well. I create a conversion table of on of the main chapter files. I structure my chapter based on the conversion table. But for some reason FrameMakes seems to make a mess out of the table elements.
It seems the element "Table" is missing and I suspect I shall have to create it manually in the conversion table? Perhaps?... What am I doing wrong here?

regards
Bjørn

Taking a stab in the dark here.When creating the Conversion Table, FM doesn't create a separate conversion rule for each component of each table. You need to define those manually.

In a conversion document we used to convert our unstructured FM documents to structured FM, we specified the paragraph style for each component of the table and the corresponding element in our EDD it should be converted to.

Table with Header (no footer):

Table with Title (no header or footer):

Hope this helps.
