cross-referenced tables generate a page break
Hello: When I use cross-referenced tables in Word, the cross reference in
the text provoque shifts to page breaks. It doesn't happen always and with all the cross references but happens suddenly, particularly when printing the document. I would appreciate very much if some one can help with this. Caty |

cross-referenced tables generate a page break
Cross-references make use of hidden bookmarks. The usual reason for
problems with a cross-reference is that you've inadvertently entered content into its bookmark. This happens whenever you add content at the beginning of a bookmarked paragraph; the content is then added *inside* the bookmark. Pressing Enter (to insert a paragraph) or pressing Ctrl+Enter (to insert a manual page break) are common culprits. Here's how to fix it: Select the text which the bookmark should reference. Choose InsertBookmark. In the dialog box, click the "Hidden bookmarks" option. Then click the "Location" radio button. You'll see a bookmark name highlighted. Click Add to redefine the bookmark to the correct piece of text. Repeat this for all problem bookmarks. Then select the entire document and press F9 to update cross-reference fields. To avoid the problem in the future, you may want to use "Page break before" formatting (on the Line and Page Breaks tab of FormatParagraph) to insert page breaks, rather than adding a manual break. And when you need to add a new paragraph before a bookmarked one, press Enter at the end of the previous paragraph instead. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "CatyB" wrote in message ...
