Default Word Tables and Text Wrapping

Yes, that would certainly work if the placement of the table at that
particular point is not critical.

Try moving the table anchor to a higher paragraph, so the whole table can
fit on the page. (Select the table, delete it; than move to another
paragraph and paste it. The pasting behavior for wrapped tables is so
much
nicer than for text boxes.) Or leave the anchor where it is and set a
negative value to the vertical (start) position of the table. Again, the
object is to fit the whole table on the page. The text wrapping should
sort
itself out then--at least that's what I've seen.

This seems to be a stubborn problem for Microsoft Word. I have a table
that
extends off the edge of the page. Now Text wrapping is on, Positioning is
0.02". But due to the table extending off the page, all the text that is
supposed to wrap is moved directly to the next page, leaving a blank space
along the side of the table nearly half the page's length. Is there a way
to
force the text to get in its proper spot?
