All very interesting info, Herb. You might want to post this into the ESC
post in the private Word NG so it can be followed up on.

PSS... I just discovered that the problem can revert during the same
session. But, re-jiggling Print Preview restores correct display (at least
for a while... haven't figured out the trigger, but it might be the
AutoRecover interval).

PS... As it turns out, once you switch into Print Preview mode and then
back to Print Layout view, the display bug appears to be suppressed for
the balance of that editing session (i.e., until you close and reopen the
document). So, you don't even have to work in Print Preview mode at all.
Just switch into Print Preview mode and back to Print Layout view. To
make Print Preview easier a while back, I added it to my QAT. If you put
the Print Preview and Print Layout buttons side by size on the QAT, it is
very easy to switch back and forth. Or... you could write a macro to
quickly make the switch to "jiggle" the setting to allow correct display.

There are actually a couple of workarounds. One is to work in Print
Preview mode with the Magnifier turned off (the magnifier is the
annoying mouse pointer that makes you think you're limited to zooming
the text in Print Preview mode, when in fact you can edit freely in that
mode). This lets you work in WYSIWYG mode, and the selection and cursor
location now display correctly.

The other workaround--if you don't need to see the columns--is to switch
to Draft or Web Layout view... do what needs to be done to the table,
and then switch back to Print Layout view when you want to see what the
document will look like.

This is a known bug and has been reported. It happens when you have
tables in multiple columns and have heading rows repeated. It seems to
affect only the first page of the table. There is no workaround that
allows you to keep both the snaking columns and the repeated heading
rows, unfortunately, though eliminating either one will fix the
problem.

I have this problem too, on at least 2 different computers. It's a file
that
was started in 2003, though I don't know if that matters. No solution
yet
either, sorry!

it's hard to tell if I 'm in the right places.

I created this table on a landscape page. It has continuous section
breaks
before and after the table since I wanted the table's 4 columns of
info to
repeat and spread across the width of the page.

Has anyone else come across this and have a fix suggestion?
