Word Table
I am creating a table in Word because I like the way you can work with the
table without a limit of characters as in Access.( limit 256) There is alot more to enter for each client on a few of them. What I would like to know is how can I in the first column of the table, have all the numbers move to the left so that I do not have to have a large column just to display the numbers? I thank you in advance. I did this once before, but cannot find how I did it again. :-(

Word Table
In Access if you use a memo type field, the 256 character limit does not
apply. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "jthhousing" wrote in message ...

Word Table
Thank you. I also got the same answer in Access help. I just changed it from
text to memo. I am just getting ready to start the input of info. Again, thank you. Access is something I am trying to learn on my own. This piece of info will be a huge help.
