Tables "Jump" in Word
Hi all-
This has been happening for a couple of years now and I am tiring of the eye strain: I use tables in Word 2003 a lot and in most of those tables, whenever I am entering text or numbers, the table jumps with each keystroke. It looks like, for a brief moment, the table rows' height shrinks, then pops back to normal size. Any idea how to fix this? I know it sounds petty, but try entering pages of data this way! Thanks all, Travis |

In Table Properties "Table" tab "Options..." button did you deactivate "Automatically resize to fit contents"? |

Tables "Jump" in Word
Well, it's not that I deactivated it, but yes, it does appear to be
unchecked. I'll give that a shot!

Tables "Jump" in Word
I sometimes see this jumping when I am editing a table and have the
"WhiteSpace" hidden. You do not describe this but when I have WhiteSpace showing my tables do not jump. See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm for further help with this. Hope this helps DeanH "Travis G" wrote: Well, it's not that I deactivated it, but yes, it does appear to be unchecked. I'll give that a shot!
