Insert table next to wording, with table continuing to next pages
After trying a couple of hints for other questions I found in the
discussions, I still can't get this to work. The document was typed in Word by someone else, and now they want me to add a 1/2-inch table (or something else?) which will continue down the right side of several pages so I can enter a little information beside some of the text. I could get it to work using the hints I found ... until I enter info in the table that makes the table long enough to go to the next page. Then it moves the entire table to the next page, and all the wording that had been to the left of the table moves to the next page with it, leaving almost nothing on the first page. Any hints? Thanks! |

Is this a wrapped table (that is, is the "Text wrapping" set to "Around"
on the Table tab of the Table Properties dialog box)? Depending on the version of Word, wrapped tables might not break across pages. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Sheri" wrote in message news After trying a couple of hints for other questions I found in the discussions, I still can't get this to work.

Yes, it's set to "around" and it's Word 2003. I guess I have to make
separate tables. Thanks for trying, Stefan! Sheri "Stefan Blom" wrote: Is this a wrapped table (that is, is the "Text wrapping" set to "Around" on the Table tab of the Table Properties dialog box)?

Are any table rows formatted as "Keep with next" (Format | Paragraph,
Line and Page Breaks tab)? If so, clear that option. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Sheri" wrote in message ... Yes, it's set to "around" and it's Word 2003.
