Default I can't get a W2013 table to word wrap as I think it should.

Hello.

I am running Word 2013 on W7. I expect my situation has come up several times before, but I can't find any ideas in my books.

I want to keep minutes of meetings by using a long table (perhaps some 4-5 pages long) with three columns. the first is to contain a number, the second and widest the actual text, and the third quite short as it only needs to contain the initials of whoever is charged with dealing with the issue.

My problem is that wordwrap in the cells of the middle column does not seem to be working correctly. In the snapshot of the page below, I would have expected the text to break at the start of the third column, but it seems almost as if the second column is being covered by the third!

Can anybody help, please?
