Tables go with the flow of the document anyway. Do you want to anchor to
text that is not next to the table or something? Can you give a bit more detail about what you want? -- Enjoy, Tony "petermcwerner" wrote in message ...

Thank you Tony,
Can you give a bit more detail about what you want? In a document I had placed tables where they belonged. Upen re-opening the docunment, all the tables were at the top of the document and all the text after the tables, completely out of context. What I want: **************************** Table of content First Heading 1 ----------- | Table 1 | ----------- text text text Second Heading 1 ----------- | Table 2 | ----------- text text etc ************************************************** ** What I got when I re-opened the saved document: Table of Content ----------- Table 1 ----------- ----------- Table 2 ----------- ----------- Table 3 ----------- ----------- Table 4 ----------- Heading 1 text Heading 2 text etc. Cheers Peter |

I don't know what can cause that. It isn't normal. Are the tables inside the
TOC or after it? -- Enjoy, Tony "petermcwerner" wrote in message ... Thank you Tony, Can you give a bit more detail about what you want? In a document I had placed tables where they belonged.

Anchoring a table (Word 2002)
Sounds as if the tables have become dislodged and wrapped. This happens
easily in Print Layout view; if you accidentally nudge the table handle, the table becomes wrapped. Right-click on the table, select Table Properties, Table tab, and set text wrapping to None. If you placed the tables by dragging them, then they were certainly wrapped. You may want to place them instead by selecting the entire table (you can do this by clicking on the table handle), then using Ctrl+X to Cut the table and Ctrl+V to paste it where you want it. If you *want* the tables wrapped, then use the Positioning... button on the Table tab of Table Properties to specify the exact position relative to the margin, page, column, or paragraph. -- Suzanne S.
