You can override the grid when moving anything by pressing Alt while
dragging. But you'll have much better success if you leave the table inline.
In the template you mention, however, the fading bar is NOT in the header.
It is part of the table (there is no header; header and footer margins have
been set to 0"). If you will display table gridlines (and text boundaries),
I think you'll get a better idea of what's going on. The design is created
with a complex table, and some of the table cells contain text boxes. I
think this is a recipe for disaster, but YMMV.
FWIW, whoever created the template didn't know how to avoid the empty
paragraph above the table on p. 2ff., either.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, when I changed the wrapping back
to
NONE, it just moved the table back to where it started.
There seems to be "snap" points, because the table will only line up just
above or just below (partially over, partially not) the header, which is a
fading bar. The printed lines are supposed to line up at the top. The
uppermost table row/cell is the same height as the fading bar.
If a reference will help, the template I am using is called "Newsletter
(Accessory theme, 4-col.) on OfficeOnline templates. It has the fading
gold
bars at the top with a microphone clip art on the top right.

When you nudge a table using the table handle, you change its wrapping
from
None to Around and in the process probably lose all control of it. Go to
Table Properties, change the wrapping back to None and use the indent
setting to control the alignment.

I am creating a newsletter from a WORD template. On the fourth page,
the
table does not line up with the Header, and I can't figure out how to
move
it. When I click on the upper left hand corner and move it, the table
either
won't line up (because I can't see where it's going) or it moves to a
different page. Headers are different odd & even and different first
page.
Pg
2 lines up just fine, but I think for page 4 I copied the table from
pg 1.
Is
there a "nudge" feature for moving tables? Any suggestions?
