Clicking under a table to obtain cursor
You've probably inadvertently nudged your table, resulting in its being
wrapped. Go to the Table tab of Table Properties and make sure text wrapping is set to None. Also, you'll find that this sort of problem is a lot easier to troubleshoot if you have nonprinting characters displayed. -- Suzanne S.

"John" wrote in message ... Hello, I have a chart and and table on a page in Word. I'm trying to click under the table so I can type in my results. However, everytime I try to click under the table the cursor bounces up to the top of the page, on the left side of the chart. I tried to arrow down past everything; however, the cursor stops in the lowest cell of the table. If from here I type return, the lowest row of the table just keeps growing, without letting me outside of it. Any suggestions? John |

Clicking under a table to obtain cursor
Suzanne,
You were exactly right. I hade to have it wrap; but I didn't know I had to turn it off when finished. As for having the nonprinting characters displayed, are you referring to that button on the toolbar that has an icon of a paragraph symbol? Thank you for your help. John "Suzanne S.
