Thumbs up Answer: can't click out of table

It sounds like you accidentally removed the paragraph mark that separates the table from the text below it. This can happen if you delete the paragraph mark while editing the table or if you copy and paste the table without including the paragraph mark.

To fix this issue, you can try the following steps:
  1. Click anywhere inside the table to select it.
  2. Go to the "Layout" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  3. In the "Table" group, click on "Properties".
  4. In the "Table Properties" dialog box, click on the "Row" tab.
  5. Under "Row options", make sure that "Allow row to break across pages" is checked.
  6. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.

This should allow you to click below the table and continue typing. If this doesn't work, you can try inserting a new paragraph mark by pressing "Enter" at the end of the last row of the table. This should create a new paragraph below the table where you can resume typing.

If you want to avoid this issue in the future, make sure to always include the paragraph mark when copying and pasting tables. You can do this by selecting the entire table (including the paragraph mark) before copying and pasting.
