Spacing within a text box

 

My problem: spacing within a text box.

 

I am trying to put a textbox underneath my table. In ALL other tables it works fine… the spacing is correct (i.e. figure 1) and it looks good. But in ONE particular case (fig 2), the spacing is wrong. I have tried many different ways to fix this. I have copied the box, and pasted under the new table. I have restarted from scratch and have created a new textbox under the  new table. The formatting in both is Apparently identical. I have checked the spacing, line before and after etc… every item is exactly the same.. is there something else that I can do? I don’t understand why… whats interesting is … if I make the textbox under the first table.. it looks correct.. then drag or paste under the new table, it looks incorrect, but then if I drag or paste it back under the original table it goes back to looking correct. I have looked at the spacing on the pages.. they are the same.

 

(So it looks like my figures did not upload... I have pics of what is happening that I would like to share)... but Im not sure how to put them up.

 

Thanks for any help.

What is in this text box? Is it absolutely necessary to use a text box, or could you put the content in a new table row?
