Table AutoSizing in Word 2003
I am trying to get Word 2003 to stop resizing tables (horizontally) to fit
the contents. I have selected all the cells, gone into "table properties" and turned off every auto-resize command I could find. Is there something that I am missing? Thanks for any help you have. Greg |

Table AutoSizing in Word 2003
Once a table is setup to AutoFit to Contents, what you need to do is
change it to Fixed Column Width. Select the Table. From the Table menu, select AutoFit. Select Fixed Column Width. Then you can adjust your columns and not have them "float" around on you. -- Dawn Crosier Microsoft MVP "Education Lasts a Lifetime" This message is posted to a newsgroup.
