There's no Tools | Options | Protection in previous versions, either; it's
Tools | Protect Document. In Word 2007, you would look for Developer |
Protect | Protect Document or Review | Protect | Protect Document, depending
on the type of protection. For the former, you would have to have gone to
Word Options to display the Developer tab.

There is no Tools/Options/Protection in Word 2007 (ribbons instead).
Anclicking on the Word icon and the Options feature doesn't provide the
Protection feature. As far as I can tell there isno unusual ptotection, no
continuour or other section (no sections) breaks, no Header or Footer.. I
can't find a reason why only page 1 is inaccessible. The table contains a
list of many items I have been collecting for several years, so I am
reluctant to creat another table and re-insert all the data.
I appreciate your trying to help.

Hi Don,
Is there a section break between the two pages? If so, it is possible
that
the first section is protected for forms - check under
Tools|Options|Protection. Alternatively, could it be that the table on
the
1st page is in the document header or footer? To test this, double click
on the page header area and see if the table becomes accessible.
Cheers

It is weird, so I returned to my document and discovered that it is
only
on the first page of the document with 2 collumns of tables that the
cursor will not appear in a cell that is clicked, and where I cannot
edit
the cell contents. The table operates normally on the subseuent pages
(2-5). What could be affectig page 1? How do i correct this?

Hi Don,
That isn't Word 2007's normal behaviour. Are you sure the table isn't
in
a section of the document protected for forms?

Previously posted in the wrong Microsoft newsgroup--and no helpful
reply.
I recently upgraded to a Vista and Word 2007, and opened a table file
created with WIndows XP and Word 2003. I haven't yet created a new
table--only opened tables created with previous
versions of Word.
When I click in a cell, my cursor fails to open that cell or to allow
me to type or change the data in a cell. How do I get the cursor to
appear in a cell that I click in?
How do I change the data in that cell?
I never had this problem when upgrading to previous versions of Word
from Windows 95 to XP.
I would appreciate help from somebody with expertise in the new Word
tables.
