MS Office Forum / Word / Tables / August 2004Text Form Fields in Tables
I have created tables and would like to put Text Form Fields into th cells. The cell sizes are not all the same. I would like the Text For Field in the cell stay inside the boundaries of the tables cell. tested it by locking the table and then typing in the Text Form Fiel and as I type more, it expands the table cell to the right instead o going down to what would be the next line in within that cell. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Cha -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com When you create the table, go to Table Properties and click Options... on the Table tab. Clear the check box for "Automatically resize to fit contents." You may also want to set a specific column width.  SignatureSuzanne S.
