Table cell does not break across columns [multi-col page]
I've got a 1 cell table on a 2-column page.
I want the table cell to be able to continue from page-column-1 to page-column-2, and I want the table cell to stay on the same page [the cell height is less than 2x page column height]. If I uncheck the row property "Allow cell to break across pages", then if the cell starts in page-column-1 and the cell is longer than the remaining space in page-column-1, then the bottom of the cell does not wrap to page-column-2, but disappears- under the footer and continues beyond- it does not overflow to the next page either and the page count does not increment. When I have comments in the document, the dotted lines from the comments on the unviewable part of the cell lead off into the unviewable part and get cut off at the bottom of the page. This was observed on Word-2003 running on XP-sp2 This is a bug. -- Charu Tevari Software Architect Illustration Systems John Hancock Life Insurance |

Make sure the table isn't wrapped (Table Properties | Table | Text Wrapping:
None). -- Suzanne S.
