SYMPTOMS
In Word 6.0 and 6.0a, when you set the row height for a table cell to an
exact height and you type text in that cell that exceeds the cell width,
the insertion point may appear to move to the cell or area below. You
cannot see the "excess" text as you type, but the insertion point appears
to move through the width of the cell or area below.
CAUSEThe excess text is actually wrapping to the next line of the cell, but because the row height is set to Exactly, the excess text may not have enough room (height) to display. However, the insertion point display criteria for page layout view in Word 6.0 and 6.0a for Windows indicates that if any portion of the insertion point is showing above the bottom of the table cell, the entire insertion point should be displayed. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word 6.0 and 6.0a for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. MORE INFORMATIONWhen row height is set to Exactly, you can type text that exceeds the set cell size into a cell, but the excess text does not display. The insertion point disappears when the cell boundary is reached. Additional query words: 6.00a page layout insertion point word6 winword IP display problem cursor
