Also make sure that none of the rows except the top row(s) in the top table
are designated as heading rows.

I have the same problem. I have checked:
1. wrap not set
2. table width the same
3. table position on page (eg indent, left margin) is the same
The symptom of the problem is that the line where the two tables meet is
wavy instead of being straight

query by keyword in Word 2003 table?

laur...@discussions.microsoft.com (laurent) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 05:25:01 UT

Hi everybody
I would like to use word to design a simple table. I would like to add a
keywords field, and wish I was able to make keyword queries.
Is that possible, and if yes what is the easier way to go about it?
thank you forehand for you hand

I generally avoid nested tables, but they may be the least-work option for
you. Make a three-column, one-row table. Put one of your tables into each
cell.

Some time after posting the previous replies in this thread, I created an
article in which I have tried to cover every single item I could find that
could cause problems with the table cell shading. Maybe you will find more
things to check in the article:

If it is the only table in the document, use
ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Conve rtToText
or if there is more than one and this is the last table, use:
With ActiveDocument
.Tables(.Tables.Count).Convert ToText
End With

You should define and use styles. Then all that you need to do is modify
the style and the changes will be applied to all instances of it. That may
be too late in your case and if so, the only other alternative might be to
create a macro to run through the table and make the changes, but that may

Exactly how do you want to align the tables, or what features of them do you
want to align?

Is the same font/font size used for all of the text in all of the cells in
the rows in which this issue occurs?

We have the same problem and NOTHING seems to fix it. Is it possible the
tables are just corrupt? The documents are very long and very table heavy.
Tried the cell margins, tried space before and after, tried making sure that
we were actually filling the cells. The only "solution" that we've found is

Aligning multiple tables in Word 07

tmckera...@gmail.com (Tiffany McKerahan) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 18:51:32 UT

Hi, I have three tables of varying sizes that I'd like to neatly align
so that they look like three columns on the page. I tried Word's
column function but that wreaked havoc on the tables. I've also
tweaked the tables' alignment, wrapping and positioning settings but
can't get it quite right. Is there any way to apply the Distribute

Converting Tables to Text macro

m...@discussions.microsoft.com (mnt) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 16:26:02 UT

I have a macro I'm starting to have trouble with. I copy a one-column MS
Access query result. Then in Word, it pastes it in to a doc as RTF, goes to
the end of the doc, moves up one row and converts the table to text.
The macro is erroring out because the "object doesn't refer to a table." If
I go into the doc and see where the cursor is, it's at the bottom of the doc

Doug - thank you for your prompt response. I had discovered this "manual
method" - I have a table that spans multiple pages and has multi-level bullet
lists. Do you have any ideas on to make the format change once without have
to go cell-by-cell? Thank you.
