I created a table, but have it starting at the top margin..
want to reposition it down several lines, how can I do that??

TIA Jack


Put the cursor to the left of the first character in the top left cell
and press Enter. The new paragraph that creates will be above the
table instead of being in the cell. This "trick" works only in that
specific position.

I'm not sure what version introduced this (2000? 2002?). A method that
worked before that, and still works, is to put the cursor in the top
left cell and click Table Split Table.
