Problems using tables to format a formular
Hi
I have 2 major problems when I try to adjust the cells in a table to fit into a ready printed formular. 1) Dragging "wall" of a cell is not done smoothly. The vertical line jumps in irregular steps. Is it possible to make a setup, so that I am free to drag the vertical lines in as small distance as I like? 2) Often I discovers that dragging in one cell-wall (vertical line) causes other vertical lines to move un wanted and sometimes the line flips back as soon as I release the mouse button. How can I avoid these effects? On beforehand: Thanks Ebbe |

Ebbe,
Have you tried dragging the cell whilst holding down the Alt key. That should give you some control. -- Luc Sanders (MVP - PowerPoint) "Ebbe" schreef in bericht ...

Ebbe,
You could try to use the help files on tables. There is a lot of info to be found there. The Alt key is not only used to be more precise but also indicates the exact measurements of columns rows, margins for that matter, in the ruler. -- Luc Sanders (MVP - PowerPoint) "Ebbe" schreef in bericht ...
