Hello Kelly, 
For a short term solution for a few tables the process could be: 
1. In word turn the table into tab separated text (there may be a way to select the cell separator character in word if you use tabs in the word table). 
2. Copy the table text into Frame using Paste special and select text. 
3. Use the Frame Table menu item to turn text into a table - there you can select the Frame Table format. 

You might have to modify column sizes and the like and do some other simple formatting work. 

Arnis has, in other threads on Word to Frame, indicated some utility that might do better than this simple process. 
Cheers 
Ian
