How do I reduce the gap between two split tables in a word doc
Depending on how you split the table there may be a page break between the
new tables. This can be deleted and you will be left with a paragraph mark. The simpliest way of closing the gap is to remove any Space After/Before and Line spacing to Single for this paragraph mark and then apply a Font size of 1 or 2. Soemtimes instead of spliting the table, I insert a new row which has no (or white) borders), depending on the results I am after. You will need to remember that this paragraph is still there later on when working on the document as it can reappear if doing a find/replace on the styles that it has applied. Hope this helps.

Format the paragraph that separates them with a smaller font size.

Change the formatting of the paragraph mark (¶) that separates the two
tables. You can set its Spacing Before and After to zero, set the Line Spacing to "Single," and reduce the font size. You may even create a style with those settings, and apply it to the paragraph mark. To show/hide paragraph marks as well as other nonprinting marks, press Ctrl+Shift+8. ~~~ Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Mrs F" Mrs wrote in message ...
