No, Enter alone does not always work. I see documents all the time that
start with a table on page 1 and for one reason or another, pressing Enter
will not, under any circumstance, add a para before the table. You can press
it till the cows come home and all you'll get is a lot of paras in cell 1.
Therefore, I showed him how to force it if necessary.

Enter works in every version from Word 6.0 forward.

And if that doesn't work, use Ctrl-Shift-Enter.

Ok, so I have a table: a long one that starts right at the top of the
page.
Now I am trying to write something ABOVE the table and there is no way I
can force the thing down!
Help...
