    I created a general table, and tried the Ctrl c and Ctrl v method, which
    failed to copy the table to another sheet. Note there are no links to
    properties in this table.

    After scratching my head for a while, I found that by saving the table as a
    template, I was able to insert the said table into a new drawing!

    This has saved, a lot of work, so I am happy! :)

    Good one. I wonder why copy & paste doesn't work... You'd think that would
    be one of the first things implemented or inherited from a parent class.

    So, cut-and-paste works between drawings, but not between sheets on a
    single drawing?

    This one caused a lot of headaches in our group as well. The trick I
    found was to click on the general table in the drawing feature tree
    and not on the table itself in the drawing. Once the " feature tree"
    table item is highlighted, you can then ctrl-c then ctrl-v to paste
    the table on the sheet.
