Table Extends Beyond Right Margin After Increasing Margins

• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

SUMMARY

If you insert a table in a Microsoft Word for Windows document and increase the left or right margin setting, the table does not resize to fit within the new margins. It retains its original width and extends over the right margin.

MORE INFORMATION

When you insert a table in a Word for Windows document and accept the default column width, Word sizes the table's columns so that the table is the same width as the width between the current section's right and left margin settings. If you change the left margin, right margin, or the number of columns, Word does not resize the table to fit within the new page or column margins. You must make column-width adjustments separately.
