working in a Word 2007 table and have text in an extremely long column, NOT
continue onto the next page but just disappear! You can't view it in Print
layout (can see in Draft) and when print, it cuts it off, also. HELP!

Right-click the table and choose Table Properties from the context menu. On
the Table tab, choose "None" for "Text wrapping." Click OK.

Although it seems as though there should be a better or more correct fix,
what i finally ended up doing, was selecting all my columns in that row, and
inserted a row beneath it. Then I merged my cells for those columns that
extended beyond the height of 1 page, and it allowed the text to now be seen.
Seems stupid, that it didn't automatically flow from one page to another,
but since text wrapping was not on, had to figure out something else. If
anyone knows of another way to fix this, I would appreciate it, for me and my
co-workers that have also had this problem.

this is so frustrating and not the first time it's happened. I see my column
complete, extending onto the following page, then I go and click in another
cell to edit, and the column extension disappears again! Why?

What you are describing shouldn't happen. You may want to treat the table as
corrupt. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm.

In addition to setting text wrapping to none, check row height in table
properties, sounds like "Exactly" is checked (there by limiting the vertical
size of the cell), change it to "at least". That should allow your table to
expand. ummm, also ensure that "allow to break across pages" is checked.

Hope this simple answer solves the problem!

Fixed row height doesn't explain why the text could be seen in Draft view,
though.
