whether am i doing wrong?

S

Srini

Hi,

I have dot file with two pages (VBA code embeded in it)
1st page: it will have company name and client name (bookmarks)
2nd page: content related to the client with some bookmarks which fits
exactly in one page. representative will enter these user fields and
those fields are captured in the document. even with bookmarks data, it

exactly fits in a page


My problem. after running the dot file, the content of page is shifted
down by one line (after header) which makes the content to run to the
next page. i dont know if iam doing something wrong. i want to fit in
exactly in one page.


Any help is highly appreciated.


Thanks
Srini

Hi Srini,

Word is a word-processor; this means it's main area of emphasis is text
flow. Just because you type something and it fits on one page does not
mean it will remain one page long as soon as additional text is entered.

If you want to force a set of text to remain on one page you have to put
it in some kind of container. This could be a one-cell table, a frame
from the Forms toolbar or a text box. All other things being equal, I'd
choose the table, making sure it's formatted with text wrap and not
allowed to break to the next page (and exactly how this is achieved
depends on the version of Word you're using, which you unfortunately do
not mention).

Hi Cindy,

In that case, in the Table/Table Properties dialog box, click "Around"
under "Text wrapping". The table should not break to another page.
