Table Width

[Jacques]

I have a table displaying records obtained from the Databse Results Wizard.
If the text fields are filled with the maximum number of letters, the user
has to scroll on the right on internet browser to see all the table.
In Table Properties, I specified width to 100 % percent.
My web page is composed of a layout table. On the left side, there is a cell
used to display the vertical navigation bar, no width is specified, it's
about 175 pixels wide. On the right of this cell, there is a cell used for
margin, no width is specified, it's about 25 pixels wide. On the right of
this cell, there is a cell used for the text and table, width is 100 % and
height is 100%.
How can I do so my table don't extend past the browser window on the right
(and the long text wrap inside the cells) ?

I went to your web page but I didn't see which tip could solve my problem.

Only relevant one was Line breaks at that page
- but table / cell sizes are minimums and will always expand to fit the cell content that is not wrappable
Displaying less fields of data (cells) or formatting the fields (cells) w/ a smaller font size are 2 other options

I understood my problem. I wanted to test my table by typing the letter w in
a field 80 times with no blank space. But in reality, users will always put
blank spaces in sentences. So I saw that in this case, my text wrap and the
table is not too wide.
Thanks.
