Some Text Not Wrapping
Hi all,
I am quite familiar with Tables (or so I thought!) but this one table that someone sent to me has some cells that do not text wrap. If I move the edge of the table further right then I can see the text. If I decrease the size of the table (move the right edge left-ward), the text does not show but the cell does increase in size. It's like the extra line is there but no text shows. I have confirmed that TablePropertiesCellOptions has Wrapped Text checked. Using Word 2000 on XP stand alone. thx for any suggestions, karen |

Some Text Not Wrapping
On the Cell tab of the Table Properties dialog, click Options... and make
sure that the "Wrap text" box is checked. Also, make sure that the paragraph in question doesn't have a negative indent (though that doesn't sound like the issue here). -- Suzanne S.

Some Text Not Wrapping
Thx a mint for mentioning all possibilities Suzanne. I did have Wrap Text
checked (I noted in my post), but it was the Negative Indent. I took it out and ta-da!! (I think the person who created the table cut & pasted from another doc.) Thx again - I'd spent about 45 min over 2 days trying to figure it out! Enjoy-la! karen "Suzanne S.
