Float table to bottom of page in Word 2007

Is it possible to float a table to the bottom of a page in Word 2007?

I am making a template for revisable documents for work (specs, routines etc) and I want the front page to contain the document title, and a table of revisions. I want to float this table to the bottom of the page. So as I add rows to it, it grows upwards towards the title (which is at top of page, and not middle.)

Is this possible?


Solution 1:

Assuming that you are using a page break on your title page, then

  1. Insert your table after the title (I'd insert it on a new line so that it doesn't have the title's style)
  2. Right click the table and select “Table Properties...”.
  3. In the “Table” tab, “Text wrapping”, select “Around”, which makes the nearby “Positioning...” button active.
  4. In the “Positioning” dialog, select vertical position as “Bottom” relative to “Margin”.

When adding to the table, it should now grow upward.

Solution 2:

I ended up with inserting a table that covered the whole page. One column, two rows. Bottom row aligns to bottom.

Not the most elegant solution, but it works.
