First, select the table and click Table AutoFit Fixed Column Width. That prevents the columns from expanding the width. Then, with the whole table selected, go to Table Table Properties Row. Check the box for "Specify height". Set the amount of vertical space you want to allow, and change the right-hand dropdown to "Exactly". If users insert more text than will fit in a cell, or press Enter too many times, the extra text will just disappear below the bottom of the cell. It will really still be in the document, just not visible. Also, unless the document is protected for forms or for comments, the users will be able to drag the table's borders to change the cell size. They would have to do that deliberately, though. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
