Aligning borders with multiple tables in a single document
Hi,
I have a one page document with several tables on the page. One table has one more column than the other tables, and the other 2 tables have the same column names. Unfortunately (because of manual editing), the left and right borders of the tables do not align. They are slightly off and manually dragging does not appear to fix the issue. I am wondering how I can make the right and left borders line up for all the tables. By the way, manual dragging does seem to work fine for the borders between columns in the table. It is only the outer left and right table borders that won't align. Thank you, Craig

You could try setting the preferred width of each of the tables to the same
exact amount. -- Suzanne S.
