Prev: Can I make spell check text larger in word
Next: How to attach another Word document to the existing one?
From: bondo on 13 Apr 2010 17:28 I dont even know if I can describe this. I have a word document that when viewed in print layout seperates the text boxes 1 per page. The first text box is for say a persons name and below that another box for say age.. Another box below that is for comments by the way these boxes expand as needed as more comments are added. And the last box is for reviewer and signature etc... So basically 4 input boxes printing on 4 pages when it should be 2. Interesting is the doc prints fine in portrait but needs to be in landscape and hence the formatting gets lost. I have tried to correct this using office xp and 07. This happened mysteriosly on about 25 docs and somehow office word anyway wasnt installed and word perfect was... Humm TIA Bill

Are you certain they're really textboxes and not table cells? I can create something similar to the scenario you describe by doing the following to a table: 1. Setting the row height to At Least or Exactly to a value that's greater than 50% of the page's available printing height (e.g., 5" does it here with normal margins) 2. Turning off Allow row to break across pages. So... the first thing I would do would be to check those two settings (both are available in the Table Properties dialog). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word Bible Blog: http://word.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "bondo" <bondo(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:97252B31-329D-44FF-91E8-53D7CA562DAD(a)microsoft.com... > I dont even know if I can describe this.
