Hello, @naked34501! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have for the Dify project. Let me know how I can assist you!

To address the issue of table data not being extracted from a Word document using Dify version 10.0, ensure that the WordExtractor class is correctly parsing tables into markdown format. The _table_to_markdown method is responsible for converting tables into markdown, which is then included in the extracted content. Verify that the parse_docx method is correctly iterating over the document's elements and calling _table_to_markdown for each table.

Here's a relevant snippet from the code that handles table extraction:

def _table_to_markdown(self, table, image_map):
    markdown = []
    total_cols = max(len(row.cells) for row in table.rows)

    header_row = table.rows[0]
    headers = self._parse_row(header_row, image_map, total_cols)
    markdown.append("| " + " | ".join(headers) + " |")
    markdown.append("| " + " | ".join(["---"] * total_cols) + " |")

    for row in table.rows[1:]:
        row_cells = self._parse_row(row, image_map, total_cols)
        markdown.append("| " + " | ".join(row_cells) + " |")
    return "\n".join(markdown)

Ensure that the parse_docx method is correctly identifying table elements and invoking _table_to_markdown:

for element in doc.element.body:
    if hasattr(element, "tag"):
        if isinstance(element.tag, str) and element.tag.endswith("tbl"):  # table
            table = tables.pop(0)
            content.append(self._table_to_markdown(table, image_map))

If the tables are still not being extracted, check for any errors in the _parse_row or _parse_cell methods that might prevent proper parsing of table rows and cells [1].
