[mso] Re: Exercising with Tables in Word (2003+WinXP)

Hi David

I liked your idea of Positioning which I hadn't checked and so I followed
your suggestions. In doing so I found that in the Table Positioning dialog
box student somehow had "2 cm" instead one of the dropdown options at
Vertical and it was relative to "Page" but correcting both did not solve so,
some feedback .....

Get it so that you have positive positioning relative to margin or paragraph
and it should be OK.

>>> ..... In Table Positioning I selected Vertical setting as Centre and set
it relative to Margin. Table slightly realigned itself, but when I turned on
Header & Footer again, the dotted line square defining Header area was still
stretched right down the page to butt against Footer dotted line area.

If it's really embedded in the header, it'll have to be cut out of there and
pasted back into the main part of the page text.

>>> That's why I cut it out of the original document and pasted firmly in
text area using a new Normal.dot (which BTW has standard default
margin/header/footer settings)

Is the table actually in the header, or is it just positioned in the same
part of the page as the header?

>> Table is not in the Header, confirmed by it being "greyed" when
Header/Footer is switched on when also Left Ruler shows Header as occupying
that same near-full-page are, even though in Page setup Header is defined as
1.25 cm from Edge of page. .....

And before anyone ask ..... No, Header is not full of blank lines, .....
Yes, Paragraph + Line spacing etc in Header are all set to zero!!!!!
