How to move the table in InDesign?

When I am placing my word files into InDesign my tables are not moving through my text? Why?

The table is, when you import it with a word file it is part of the text flow. If you want to get it as a separate text frame, cut it into the pasteboard and place it in a separate text frame or if they are longer into a separate thread of text.
