Glad I could help. Sometimes a glance at the ruler will point that up, but
of course we're used to the ruler being so complicated in tables that we
often don't look.

You are bang on target! What a star! I would NEVER have found that out on
my own. Many many thanks. You just saved me hours of work.
I highlighted the table, then checked the menu for "format" - "paragraph"
and there is was - a negative right indent. Fixed that - problem solved.
