Thanks Roger! It will be tomorrow before I get back in those documents, but you’ve armed me with a lot of “weapons” to try. I feel comfortable now that I can get the number not to break, but still maintain adequate cell margin.

Check your para format settings, on the Table Cell tab in the paragraph designer. There may be padding added there that you can eliminate. 2. Check the table format settings for padding inside the cells. These are *added* to any padding referred to in #1. 3. Check other para format settings, e.g. right tabs, indents, etc. 4. Since you say this doc is converted from Word, check for hidden characters at the end of lines. Word usually add a narrow hidden character immediately before the paragraph mark (pilcrow). To test for this, check that Vew > Text Symbols is on, then use your right-arrow key to move a step at a time to the end of the line. The easiest way to get rid of these hidden characters is to save as MIF and then reopen and save as FM. It's a good idea to do that anyway. Hope this helps!

I’ve got everything working correctly except for one detail. The document has a number of tables with a narrow column on the right margin for revision numbers. For numbers 1-9, it looks fine. But when I get to a two digit number (the document is currently on revision 10), the “10” insists on breaking across two lines. I’ve tried changing fonts and reducing cell margins to where it looks like there is plenty of space in the column to display the “10” on one line. But it still insists on breaking it across two lines. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me! Tim DeWees
