Andrew,

Thanks. It was the <table> <table> issue. When I tried to reproduce it I put some text between because that is what I thought I had done, but evidently not.

Thanks

Frank

After considerable effort I have saved in Word and am continuing my writing using Word. The roadblock is the use of more than 1 table on a page. No matter what I do with the break options etc. I cannot get more than one table on a page or even additional text below the first table. I have read the help several times. Tried about a dozen combinations and permutations of options to no avail and much frustration. Maybe this is easy to accomplish but the magic combo escapes me. If this is easy I will retur to OO otherwise I am stuck with Word where this is a trivial drag and drop task. My desire is to use OO but I also have to make a living

Thanks

I will make a simple guess that your text document starts as follows:

blah blah blah
<text table><document ends>

You can then NOT insert much of anything after the text table. You can check this by placing the cursor into the last text table and then using the down arrow key. If the cursor moves out of the text tabel and into the text, then this is NOT the problem. By default, OOo attempts to prevent you from creating a document in this fashion. I have only seen this when I have purposely created a document this way while using a macro.

The same thing can occure if you have two text tables next to each other as follows:
<table>
<table>

How do you insert things between the text tables. Is this your problem?

When I have faced these problems, I have done one of two things.
(1) Write a macro to insert text AFTER the text table
(2) Create a new document and then copy the offending text into the new document, but allow space at the end.
