Shucherface,
Are you dragging with the markers in the ruler, then the table will resize,
use shift+drag to adjust the width of one column, or drag in the table
itself by positioning your cursor on the line. If you want to adjust not
only the column you are dragging with use ctrl+drag and see what happens.
Does that help ?

I've been getting very frustrated with tables in Word. I work as an EDGAR
operator, and so I use tables a lot in Word, but I've been finding that

the
tables resize every time I try to move the borders of the columns.

Resizing
the columns most of the time makes the entire table resize. I go into

table
properties and turn off the width boxes but the check marks come right

back.
How do I keep the tables from resizing, as I have very specific reasons

for
wanting certain columns to be a certain width, but the table doesn't let

me.
