Default Locate the text below the table

In the attachment, I created a table but when writing the second line, it's not below the table, it's below where the first line was created. How can I fix that?



This is what I want:

Copy the table and "paste special as a picture" in the current position (deleting the existing table once you have copied it). You can then change it to a much smaller size by dragging endpoints to desired size (Note: You may have to crop the pasted table prior to reducing to size). You could also increase the font size of the text outside of the table to 10.5pt but, that would have most likely cause other concerns.

HTHs...

I've updated my main post with the result I want.
I couldn't pull it off with your suggestion.

Thanks.

I just realised that by increasing the size of the font, it produces the expected result.
Since the size 10 is small, it overlaps with the table and that's why the second line doesn't start below the table.

Though, I want to use the size 10. Can you think of another way?
See the attachment. Thanks!

I added another text where I set the size to 10. The second line starts below the table but there's a space. How can I push the text up?

The problem is that your table's row height is too great to fit within a single line of text, so the next line gets pushed out of the way. You presently have it set to 'at least' 0.4cm. If you change it to 'exactly' 0.4cm it will fit.
