You can set "Text wrapping" for the table (Table | Table Properties,
Table tab) to "Around" and then click the Positioning button; this
gives you the option to place the table relative to page edges or
margins.


Funny where they've hidden the old "Positioning" functionality! I'd have
never guessed under "Around"... not sure that logic. But that worked
perfect... set positioning relative to margins and allowed overlap and it
happily did exactly what I needed. THANKS!!
