formatting marks, extra space in cell
Hi;
In the file http://www.windwardreports.com/temp/DocFormatting.zip Can you please tell me the following: 1) With show all formatting marks some end of cell & end of para marks on page 2 are in red. What does the red mean? 2) On page 3 several rows leave blank space in the bottom of the cells - but the cell height is not specified. Why is that added spacing in there? 3) A paragraph marker at the end of a paragraph does not appear to force a blank line if outside fo a cell - but does force it inside a cell. Is that correct? thanks - dave Windward Reports -- http://www.WindwardReports.com me -- http://dave.thielen.com Cubicle Wars - http://www.windwardreports.com/film.htm |

formatting marks, extra space in cell
To answer (3) first, a paragraph mark in a cell represents an *extra*
paragraph because the original cell paragraph ends in the end-of-cell marker. The paragraph that ends in the EOC marker, if empty, would be a "blank line." As for (2), it could be that the text in those cells has some Spacing After applied. As for (1), without looking at the document, I couldn't be sure, but do the red ones disappear when you hide nonprinting characters? Sometimes users will format paragraph marks as both Hidden (to join paragraphs in different styles) and red (so that their special status is obvious). -- Suzanne S.

formatting marks, extra space in cell
Hi;
Thank you for your suggestions. 1) Not hidden chars - that was my first thought too. I've saved it as a WordML file and I can't find anything in the xml of the file that is different between the regular and red ones. 2) I went back and looked after your suggestion - it's the line spacing set for the paragraph - that adds to the spacing of the empty paragraph at the end. THANK YOU. 3) That makes sense - THANK YOU. Anyone have a suggestion on question (1)????? thanks - dave On Mon, 23 Feb 2009 13:55:04 -0600, "Suzanne S.

1) With show all formatting marks some end of cell & end of para marks
on page 2 are in red. What does the red mean? The some of the text at one time was red, and somehow when it was changed to black (or blue), these paragraph , end of cell, and end of row marks got missed. PamC -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |
