formatting a table within a table
I want to place a table with the cell of another table and have it be 0.25
inches from the left margin of the cell I'm inserting it into. I have not yet been able to figure out how to do that. It always winds up flush with the left margin of the cell. Can anyone offer a suggestions that will work? |

Select the table and choose Table Properties from the Table menu.
Click the Table tab. Under "Alignment", click "Left". At "Indent from margin", type the desired value. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "kathryngriffin1962" wrote in message ...

I tried that. It worked with the text portions between the table sections I
was trying to place in the cell of another table, but not with the table sections themselves. They still continue to be flush. Thanks for responding.

Hi ?B?a2F0aHJ5bmdyaWZmaW4xOTYy?=,
I want to place a table with the cell of another table and have it be 0.25 inches from the left margin of the cell I'm inserting it into. I have not yet been able to figure out how to do that. It always winds up flush with the left margin of the cell. Click in the cell where you want a nested table. Table/Table Properties/Cell/Options. Set the cell margin to the value you want.
