> If a table wraps (3 rows on one page, 2 on the next, and so forth), > Frame 7 is forcing the text after the table to the following page, > frequently leaving 3/4 or more of a page of whitespace. A table is a single element in FM, anchored at a paragraph. You cannot put text or other elements in between table rows, and I'm not sure why you would want to do that. If the table fits on a single page, would you consider putting text between rows 3 and 4? I would guess no, so why would you want text to appear in between the rows if the table breaks? I understand that you may not like the white space, but you should first of all consider the presenting of information. If the info in row 4 doesn't need to follow row 3, perhaps you shouldn't be using a table at all? Have you tried setting the table's Start position to Float? Also make sure no table rows are set to Start on top of a page (see Table>Row format for each row). -- /Thomas Michanek, FrameMaker/UNIX/MIF expert http://go.to/framers/
