I have had a brief look in other posts and can't find the answer. I have a
(very small) table on the front page of a document. These are controlled
documents and this table contains people's names and signatures to verify
that the doc has been updated and checked and accepted etc.

My problem is - the text in the table will not print. When I print it, I
get the first little bit of the first row, then it stops. When I viewed it
in page lay out view, the table appeared complete and filled in. When I
checked it in print preview the table appeared, but it was missing the text.
I have checked the cells, they are set to no fill, so it is not an accidental
white out, the font is set to black.

Some history of the document: It was originally an excel file and I
converted it to word because it needs to be updated all the time and it is a
hassle in excel to do that. The quick fix is just to delete it and re-create
it (it is four lines long) but I'm curious as to what could be causing the
problem. Word version is 2000 or 2003.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Fiona
