Splitting a Section of a Table Oscar 18.07.2006 09:05:01 I am creating a project log using a table. For each issue that is being logged in some instances there are multiple discrete activities that need to be recolved. I am trying to split each action item into a separate sub row of the table Without splitting the entire section. For example the table is headings are: #/Item/Details/Action Required/Owner/Due Date/Status. I want to be able to have the first three colums apply to the entire section of the table however the latter four will apply to the Action Required section. I tried to draw a line (using table tool bar) to split the row however it wants to split the entire row of the table. Any suggestions.

Re: Splitting a Section of a Table Oscar 19.07.2006 08:17:01 Thanks Suzanne. I believe this solution will work at the beginning of table creation. I have already started to write in the log. Is there a way to do the same thing with text already present? "Suzanne S.
