Default Problems pasting text into a table

That's what I suspected. You can now remove the section break, as it is no
longer needed, and it will just make your document needlessly complex.

I understand everything but the section break. Is that left over from an
earlier experiment with snaking columns? It's certainly not needed just
for a ordinary text followed by a table.


I originally put the section in because I wanted two different types of
formatting on then same sheet: no columns and columns.
However, I discovered that the answer is indeed to use tables, and then to
set the height of the row to be an exact measurement - that stops the row
elongating itself onto the next page when text is inserted!
