Klaus, I just like that little trick! It's going to take care of most of my
tables, since they don't have any visible border. And I can certainly live
with the odd table getting a few rows moved to the next page due to the size
of the border (beats an extra blank page any day). Thanks!

HA! Good trick, Klaus!g
Yeah, I love using white borders for breaking the look of a
table...just never thought about that one! ;-)

You can define a 6 pt while bottom border in the table style for the last
row, if your table does not have borders.
But that's a large "if", and a kludge.

I believe that's about the best way you can do it...at least, that's
how *I* have been doing it for MANY years.
Although I actually create a TableSpacer style and apply that style to
the para marker after the table so I can not only easily adjust the
spacing, but also find them all once the doc is finished to make any
of those "tweaking" fixes to pull things up/push down as needed.
If someone knows a better way, I'd like to hear about it, too! ;-)

When creating tables, I would like to have a setting "space after" to
ensure
some spacing without using empty paragraphs.
I can do this for each table by changing Table Properties, setting the
text
wrapping to "Around", and then setting the distance from surrounding
text
via "Positioning". However, I can't get at this setting when creating or
modifying a Table Style.
Is this at all possible, or is there another way to automatically insert
the
required spacing? Right now I use an extra paragraph, and just had to
track
down and remove an empty page because the table was at the very end of
both
a chapter and a page.
Any help appreciated!
