Table Issues
I used the "draw table" option to draw the outline of a
table. Then I did the same to draw a table to the right of that table. Only one problem, the two tables are not separate. I don't want them to touch. How can I draw two tables next to each other so they are their own entity? When I draw the second table far enough away, it still creates a column in between without the grid lines - therefore linking the tables. I want to be able to change the row height or column width in one table and not allow it to be changed in the table next to it. HELP! |

G'day "Karen" ,
Create ONE table. Make the 'middle' column with no borders. Looks like two tables, smells like two tables - HELL - it must be two tables ;-) Steve Hudson - Word Heretic steve from wordheretic.com (Email replies require payment) Without prejudice Karen reckoned: I used the "draw table" option to draw the outline of a table.

Thank you for your help - Only problem with doing that is
that when I change the row height in one table, it changes the row height in the other table. I want them to be separate. Any other suggestions? -----Original Message----- G'day "Karen" , Create ONE table. Make the 'middle' column with no borders.

One of the tables could be wrapped, but I generally find it is easier to
create a two-column section with a table in each column. -- Suzanne S.
