How are you doing the indenting?

You should access the table properties dialog and then select the Left
Alignment icon and then set the indent that you want with the Indent from
Left control.

Tables indented in that way have always retained their position for me.

Hi Everyone,

When I create a table that is indented (in line with my text) it appears
ok.
I save the file. Then I exit. When I then reopen the document the table
has moved back to the margin, rather than staying when I had placed it.

Does anyone know how to stop this?
