Thank you Thank you Thank you ferdy 11.07.2006 08:27:01 Tables in XP/Word 2003 are a nightmare for me because being an old-fashioned girl who learnt Office in the old days on 98, there are just too many bells and whistles now in all Office applications, and tables are a particularly bad example of this. So just a note to say to all the MVPs and people with questions and answers on Word Tables that I could weep with relief that I can always find an answer to my problem in this discussion group - even if it does mean going through the current 28 pages!

Re: Thank you Thank you Thank you "Suzanne S. Barnhill" <sbarnhill[ at ]mvps.org> 11.07.2006 13:27:10 I'm glad you're finding the help you need. Although it is a bit outdated (was written when I was using Word 97 and Dave Rado was using Word 2000, IIRC), the article at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/TableBasics.htm has a lot of good basic information (and has been updated to some extent). -- Suzanne S.
