If a table extends past the bottom of the page, it is wrapped. On the Table
tab of Table Properties, set text wrapping to None. Also, if you have nested
tables and are opening the document in a version earlier than Word 2000,
they will not convert properly.

I was emailed a 30 page Word doc created with Word 2000. The entire doc
is
made up of a 4X2 table on each page. There are a few pages with an 8X13
table
within one of the tables which when I open up the doc, is not in the form
of
a table. It looks more like a list within the original table. There are
some pages
were the table extends past the bottom of the page and other pages where
one
row (4X1) table is present but I cannot sync to the bottom (4X1) table. I
have tried "shrink to fit". I have tried multiple suggestions from
Suzanne
Barnhill's site but I am running out of ideas. Thanks in advance for any
help or suggestions you can give.
