Table Style - Header Row Widowed
Does anyone know how to prevent a header row in a new table style from being
widowed (appearing on its own at the bottom of a page)? Thanks, P. |

Table Style - Header Row Widowed
Select the header row. In the Paragraph dialog box, check the "Keep with
next" option, found on the Line and Page Breaks tab. To display the Paragraph dialog box: In Word 97-2003, click Format | Paragraph. In Word 2007, click the Paragraph dialog box launcher icon on the Page Layout tab of the ribbon. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "news.motzarella.org" wrote: Does anyone know how to prevent a header row in a new table style from being widowed (appearing on its own at the bottom of a page)?

Table Style - Header Row Widowed
Is this header row formatted with the "Repeat as header row at the top of
each page" attribute? Or is it a header row purely by virtue of the logic of the table? What version of Word is this? If the header row is not explicitly formatted as "Repeat as header row...", then choosing that option should solve the problem. Method: select the first row of the table, right-click and choose Table Properties - Row tab, and click the Repeat... option. You then should remove any manually inserted copies of that row, as Word will handle the repetition as needed. Or... have you already done this, and the repeat is occurring in the wrong place? -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "news.motzarella.org" wrote in message ...

Table Style - Header Row Widowed
I'm glad I could help.
And, yes, it is not at all obvious that paragraph properties apply to the rows of a table. But there is an advantage to this behavior: You can apply "Keep with next" (or "Page break before") via a paragraph style, applied to an entire table row. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "news.motzarella.org" wrote: "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
