Text Wrapping Problems
Carbonite wrote: *I've been given a word document by a fellow member of staff who is having problems with a particular column of a table that he has set up for students to type information into. Our college uses MS Word 2002 with SP2 installed. The problem is that you can type as much as you like into the column from the top of the first page but when you reach the bottom of the column (and the point where it should follow over to the top of the next page) it carries on writing infinitely but the text is not visible either in the next page's column or at the bottom of the column on page 1. I fixed the problem by right clicking the column and selecting "Table Properties" and then selecting "Wrap Around" under the text wrapping field in the options dialogue that comes up. However on closer inspection when you type to the bottom of the column on page 1 the text does go to the next page's corresponding column but if you then scroll back up to check what you have written on page 1 and then scroll back down to page 2 the text on page 2 disappears! You also cannot click or place the cursor anywhere in the second page's column; the cursor will appear in the column to the right of it but not in the first column. Any help welcome as this has stumped all of us. * *bump* -- Carbonite ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.mcse.ms ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View this thread: http://www.mcse.ms/message1842581.html |

Carbonite,
Click in your column, go to Table - Table properties - Row tab - see if there is an axact measurement in inches/cm applied, if so click on the listarrow next to row height and choose at least. Does that help? Luc "Carbonite" schreef in bericht ...
