I am only thankful for your help and attention, but only that. A "fix" that means going through 17 rows one by one is hardly trivial. Trivial would be to split two rows in four, which Word cannot do. This is not an advanced function we're talking about. Open-source software like LibreOffice has no issues with the little "glitches" Word suffers from. Word wins the beauty contests and the monopoly contests that forces users like me to use it, but Libre is the much superior software.
