caption in a table cell
I've created a table and given it a title using captions. Now I want
to insert a caption into the first column of each row of the table. When I place my cursor in a cell and go to Insert - Reference - Caption, Word 2003 selects the entire table and only allows the new caption to go either above or below the table, but not in the table cell. Is there any way to put a caption in an individual table cell? |

Is your table wrapped?

I'm not sure what a "wrapped" table is. Text wraps within each cell.
My problem happens even when I just create a test table in a blank document and try to insert a caption in a cell. |

Okay, I've tried this, and I get the same result. Insert the caption above
or below, then cut and paste into the table. Sorry. -- Suzanne S.

caption in a table cell
An inserted caption is logically related to the captioned object - inside a
cell what is the object you are trying to caption? You can add a caption to, say, a picture in a cell. You can manually create something which looks like a caption in an (otherwise) empty cell. What is it that you are trying to achieve? -- Enjoy, Tony "janh" wrote in message ups.com... I've created a table and given it a title using captions.
