Default Unable to delete spacing after text in cells. Please help!

Hello,



I've attached a sample of my work.

As you can see, I have a table in which some cells are left with spacing below the text. I've been wondering for a long time now on how to delete those, changing cell and paragraph settings with no success.

You can see, for example, all cells to the right of the cell having the text "Ind012", that all three have too much space below.

Anyways, hope this questions is interesting to someone and that it can be helpful to solve other's problems as well in the future!

Set the row height to at least 0 - see attached. The issue is however complicated by rows with vertically merged cells

I apologize but I'm still unable to standardize cell heights. For some reason, changing row height doesn't change the actual size of the row.

I've attached a simplified table demonstrating that. Hope you can set me on the right track!

Did you look at the sample that Graham produced for you?

As Charles said, you have to take another look at Graham's response. The vertically merged cells complicate matters.
