Help with nested tables
Hello,
I searched for the following but didn't come up with anything. Perhaps I searched using the wrong phrase(s)? ISSUE: I am using Word 2000 to create templates for a manual. I have one nested table on a specific template - both the main table and nested table are set to remain on the same page and not break across pages. The client uses Word 2002...when we open the document in W2002, the nested table jumps to the second page. Is there a way to fix this so the table does not jump? The information on this particular template needs to fit on one page. Thanks in advance, Blythe |

Check to see if there are styles attached to the table text. Then check
those styles to see if any are formatted to have "page break before". Or simply change the text in the tables to Normal style and then manually format it so it doesn't use styles. **************** Anne Troy www.piersontech.com www.mrexcel.com "Anasazi" wrote in message ...

Anasazi was telling us:

The information on this particular template needs to fit on one page. In my experience, somewhat complex tables (Nested, in Textboxes, etc...) seem to have wildly different default behaviours in each version of Word. I just had a problem like that with tables done in Word XP but misbehaving in Word 2003. I think that to be on the safe side, if your client has Word 2002, you should open and arrange the template with Word 2002. This way you are sure it will behave correctly. If it were the other way around, you could try to save the template as a Word 2000 document with Word 2002. -- Salut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP ISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org |
