Text duplicating/ghosting over 2 pages
Hi All
I can't explain this very clearly because its very weird, but hopefully you will make sense of the following: 1) I have a 40 or so page Word 2000 doc, which consists of around 80% of table layouts, but simple table layouts at that. 2) On pages 20 - 21 a table has say 3 rows (with 5 cols) on page 20 and then because of the text in the 3rd row's cells this 3rd row continues on page 21 and then another 2 rows are used on page 21. Basically what I'm trying to say is that the same table has a row that continues/overlaps onto 2 pages. 3) ON PRINTOUT: In the last cell of the 3rd (last row) of page 20, a line of text appears but is slightly obscured horizontally, ie the bottoms of the chars are slightly chopped by the table row line. In the last cell of the same 3rd row in page 21 (although obviously displayed as the 1st row in this page), this same line of text appears again. ON SCREEN IN PAGE LAYOUT MODE: In the last cell of the 3rd (last row) of page 20, the line of text is displayed and is slightly obscured horizontally, ie the bottoms of the chars is slightly chopped by the table row line, but this line does not appear on page 21. 4) Looking at the pages in Normal (??) mode I can see a dotted line to show where the table row is chopped to go onto the next page, but what is weird is that the 2nd to last cell's horizontal dotted line is slightly lower than the other cells. No matter what I do I can't get them all to line up and I think this is the reason why the line of text prints on both page 20 and page 21, even though the physical text in the doc only shows this line once. Any ideas on how I can correct this? Thanks |

Text duplicating/ghosting over 2 pages
I just realized that you posted your question more than once. For a possible
solution, see my post below this thread: http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...a-5e03063e6326 -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Newbie" wrote: Hi All I can't explain this very clearly because its very weird, but hopefully you will make sense of the following: 1) I have a 40 or so page Word 2000 doc, which consists of around 80% of table layouts, but simple table layouts at that. 2) On pages 20 - 21 a table has say 3 rows (with 5 cols) on page 20 and then because of the text in the 3rd row's cells this 3rd row continues on page 21 and then another 2 rows are used on page 21.
