Default Word Table Template from Access Database

Can anyone help with the fact that an Access Database
pulled into a Word Template with 'tables' is losing data?

In the Normal view in word all of the data is viewed, in
the Print Layout view in word the data is missing and then
when printed the data is missing.

Is there a limit on size of a table...or....

Thanks.

G'Day Pegjac,

You may be better off in a WORD group....

.....however, click on the "¶" button on the
standard toolbar so that blank lines (paragraph
markers) are visible.

When you say the data is visible in Normal
view, what EXACTLY does that mean? That the
figures are present? They are in 'tables'? That
means 'Word' tables? Whereabouts on the
Screen? Left? Right? Extreme Right?

When you switch to Print layout view, and you say
the data are missing - can you see the tables? Can you
see any blank lines?

There may be any number of reasons, such as the tables
being to the right of the R.Margin, and therefore
off the page.

Let me know asap and I'll try to help!

Sorry if I am in the wrong newsgroup.

The tables are within a template and the data is pulled=20
into the tables from ACCESS.

When looking at the doc within WORD in the Normal View all=20
the data within the table is viewed. When switching to=20
the Print view the data is cut off at 34 or so lines=20
within the table and the rest of the data is ignored when=20
printed. The print continues with the next record.

The tables are located centered on page.

Does this help at all?

Hi again,

Just clarify please; are the data in Print layout view
FEWER that the data in Normal view? or are they
the same?

We started out with data visible in Normal view,
invisible in Print layout view and not printing AT ALL.

What I now GUESS is that the view is the same, and
that what prints is the same as what is viewed!

Is it that not all of the EXPECTED data can be seen?
You are making me work very hard to understand!

Please view:
TableTable Properties
Row (tab)

Ensure that the Row height is not set to 'exactly' - this
will cause the table to 'crop' any data that do not fit. The
data are still there, but not displayed or printed.
