Tiplet: Bump a table down from the top of a page (Word)

March 18, 2015 at 10:07 am

Have you ever had difficulty moving a columnar table down from the top of a page?  If so, try this:

Position your cursor to the very left of any text in the top left cell of the table.  (If there’s no text in the cell, just place your cursor in that cell.)

Look at your keyboard and locate the arrow keys.

Press the left arrow key once, then press the Enter key.   (It might not look as if pressing the left arrow key moves the cursor outside the table, but apparently it does – and that’s what makes this step so essential.)

That method should work every time!
