Diane.  First of all, no, I see no reason why you shouldn't combine the Draw
Table and Insert Table features...I use a combination of them all the time.

Now...is the cell you are trying to increase the height of INSIDE the table
or did you add it to the top right  OUTSIDE the main table?

And, I don't understand what you mean.  You say you can drag the bottom
border of this cell but not increase the height of it.  Dragging the bottom
border doesn't increase the height of the cell for you?  It sure does for me
when I do that.

I guess I need more explanation.

Subject: [mso] Drawing Tables on Word Form



I'm doing a form layout using Word 2000 and my questions are about using the
Draw Table tool on the Forms toolbar.

First question:  Is there any reason you can't or shouldn't combine the
Table > Insert Table feature in combination with the Draw Table tool to
customize tables?

Second question:  I have a table created using the Draw Table tool and don't
seem to be able to adjust the height of a cell.  I can move the right and
left border lines and the bottom line but not the top to increase the
height.  The cell for which I want to change the height happens to be the
only "drawn in" cell on an table inserted, not drawn.  This drawn in cell
has been attached to the top right corner of the base table.

Can anyone explain to me why I can't change the height of that drawn in
cell?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Diane
