Disable "Autofit to contents" (Table Properties | Table | Options) and set
preferred widths for your columns. -- Suzanne S.

I assume that it is the width of the columns that you want to fix. To do
that, from the Tables menu, select Properties and then click on Options on the Table tab of the Table Properties dialog and uncheck the box against "Automatically resize to fit contents" -- Hope this helps.

The width of the column is not the problem. It is the bottom line of the
cell that I want to freeze. Thanks for your help. "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: I assume that it is the width of the columns that you want to fix.

I've done that but it's the bottom line that I want to keep from moving.

Deb was telling us:
Deb nous racontait que : The width of the column is not the problem. It is the bottom line of the cell that I want to freeze. Thanks for your help. Set the rows to an exact height (Table Properties Row tab Specify height Row height is exactly...) -- Salut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP ISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org |
