Word 2007 - Fix table size

[L. Roper]

Is there a way to make the defalt for "Resizing tables to fit contents"
unchecked. It is under table properties / options.

Also, is there a way to "float" the borders? In Word 2003 you could pull
the borders off the toolbar and have it float for easy access.

thanks for your help,
Lou Ann

Your identical question was answered when you posted it previously.

Sorry Suzanne, but the part about the check box on Table Options dialog for
"automatically resize to fit contents" has not been answered previously.
It is something that I would like to know how to do in 2003 and 2007 (if
different).
All the best

If it was not answered, it's because there is no way (short of a macro) to
change the default.

That is what I was thinking, but hope is a wonderous thing ;-)
Many thanks

Suzanne,

I appreciate your help, but neither of my questions were answered.

The answer is that you cannot change the default setting for auto resizing,
nor are there any tear-off toolbars in Word 2007.
