thanks for the quick responce.
I tried what is shown in http://latex.s-v-p.de/floats/nonFloat.phtml
and I have afew problems again.
1) the table is not centered
2) the list format was different
I did some changes :
###########################################################################
\newenvironment{myTables}[1] {% caption as parameter
\stepcounter{table}
#changing vspace for vfill still does not center the table
\vfill
#changing the section to lot that was the problem with the
# formating of the LOT list introduced a new one
# I can not get the new line to work properly
# as it is done now the page number is printed twice !!
#
\addcontentsline{lot}{lot}{\hspace{0.95em}\thetable\hspace{0.75em} #1
\dotfill\hspace{2.0em}}
\addtocontents{lot}{\newline\hspace{-1.95em}
\center{Table \thetable : #1}%
\centering
}
{%
\vfill
\addtocounter{table}{-1}%
}
#########################################################
so nonFloats work but do not solve my problem the teble is still not
centered verticaly, I can not get the formating of the LOT right
and I cant find how to move the caption under the table ( I tried moving
\center{Table: \thetable : #1}% in the second part {} but latex
complains).
any help is welcome
thanx
