Default Text wrapping in a table...

Take a different approach. I suspect you're trying to create some sort of
form? See the "graphic lines" technique at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/LinesInForms.htm. Or omit the lines
altogether.

Do you have another suggestion for me then?

Word provides no way to wrap text from one row to another in a table;
that's
not what tables are designed for.

I have a document with a 30 line table inserted into it. As I am

typing
and
reach the end of the column, the text just goes under the previous
section
of text. I need the text to wrap into the next row.

I have tried selecting the text wrapping option "Around" but that does
not
help.

Very annoying when typing and having to remember to check where I am

and
stop and click on the next row and start again.

Thank you,

Don Manning
