Here is one I haven't encountered before...
An intern last summer made a bunch of Word files from a database. The files
contain a bunch of tables.
When the document is viewed in "Normal View," the tables look fine. When
the document is viewed in "Print Layout View," the tables are layered on top
of each other (which is how the document prints). When the document is
viewed in "Web Layout View," the tables are side by side in two columns.
So, how do I get the document to print correctly? Suggestions?
