My apologies to Tomie De Paola and all of you group members, but...

Just as Big Anthony didn't see Strega Nona blow three kisses at her
pasta pot when she said the words to stop it making pasta... I must
have done something.

I have a two page, Word 2002 report consisting of text and tables.
I've used tables to maintain spacing so some of them are three fixed
height rows and some are only one "at least" height rows.

Well...  when I went to preview the report it start "repaginating" and
wouldn't  stop. When it got over nine thousand pages I interrupted it.
Then  I  tried to print only the first and second pages. Again, before
it would start printing, Word insisted on "repagination."

I  couldn't  find  a  way to delete anything after page two. In normal
mode  it doesn't even look like there are more than two pages. I tried
copying the text and tables of page one (without the header or footer)
and  pasting the selection into a blank document. All of the thousands
of  pages  came  along.  I  tried  highlighting  each  table  to check
properties,  lest  I  have  set  up  rows to continue on next page. No
effect!

Anyone?! Please!? Strega Nona!? I'm sorry I touched your pasta pot!

Paul
