Not your average table problem
I have a problem with printing tables in Word 2000.
I have a table within a table. The "external" table is there for page layout reasons and was set up by a client as a place for us to insert our answers to their question (therefore cannot be changed or removed). Our answer includes a table of information (the "internal" table), which we then have to insert into the "external" table as part of our answer. The document is multiple pages long, and within it, at one point, both the internal table and the external table flow across two pages. When I view the document on screen (in Print Layout view or in Print Preview) the document looks fine, however when I actually print it, the internal table spills over the lower limits of the external table and across the footer, so that it runs almost to the bottom of the page. Then on the following page, the final cell of the table appears neatly as it should within the external table. The external table remains where it should be, it is only the internal tables that prints in this unexpected way. I can assure you that there is no issue with "keep with next" or "allow row to break across pages" settings. I have literally tried everything I can think of in terms of table settings and text settings and page settings. I should note that I have other tables within tables in the same document, and they do not experience the same problem with printing (i.e. each row breaks across the page as necessary without any manual intervention from me). I have scoured the net for solutions to this problem, to no avail. I am thinking this is an issue with Word 2000 itself not supporting tables inside other tables...? |
