fitting contents into a table cell
Word 2003.
Inserting a table - how do I get the contents of the cells to wrap WITHIN the cell and prevent the last few letters in a line in a cell disappearing beyond the cell margin? I've tried all sorts of settings for the cell, the table, the margins, autofit, wrap, etc. but can't seem to crack it - I keep losing a couple of letters at the right hand border of each cell. Many thanks. -- Robert |

This usually indicates that the paragraph in the cell has a negative right
indent. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Robert M Jones" wrote in message ... Word 2003.

You just saved me hours of work. I highlighted the table, then checked the menu for "format" - "paragraph" and there is was - a negative right indent. Fixed that - problem solved. -- Robert |

Glad I could help. Sometimes a glance at the ruler will point that up, but
of course we're used to the ruler being so complicated in tables that we often don't look. -- Suzanne S.
