How to split a page to 4 quarters in Word document?
However, the article contains a long table which is sent to the next page, in the middle of the page although I have specified the position as 'here'. Is there any way to make the table split if one page is not long enough for the table? Thank you very much for your very kind help. I'm really after help in splitting a table across two pages by column. The reason this can't be two separate tables because the row heights need to remain the same across the two pages, but I'm stuck and would greatly appreciate some assistance. The table is a week split across two pages, as per below: PAGE 1.
In some cases, we need to split a page to four quarters to place texts in a document as below screenshot shown. However, there is no built-in function can help you directly handle this job. Here in this article, I introduce a round-about way to finish this job in Word.
Split page to 4 quarters with a table
To split a page to 4 parts, you can insert a table to deal with the job.
1. Place the cursor at left-top of the page, then click Insert > Table, select 2x2 Table.
2. The table has been inserted, then drag right-corner of the table to resize it as you need.
3. Insert texts into the columns and rows separately.
4. Select the whole table, under Table Tools, click Design > Border > No Border.
Now the page looks like to split into 4 quarters.

In word, Columns> Orientate to suit, (which in my case is landscape) > line space between table > result: 4 columns without visible lines in between. Works a treat!

To divide your table into multiple separate tables, you need to go through 4 simple steps.
Start Split Table Wizard
Open the workbook and click the Split Table icon in the Transform group on the Ablebits Tools tab:
Step 1: Select your table
The range with your data will be entered automatically but you can edit it right in the Select your table field. Just use the Select range icon you'll see there or select the table manually in your spreadsheet:
Click Next to continue.
Step 2: Select key column(s)
Key columns are the ones that contain values by which you want to group the resulting tables. You can select one or more columns for consideration; just tick the checkboxes next to the columns with the key values.
Besides, you can use the additional options:
- If you have one or more header rows and don't want to include them to comparison, check My table has 1 header row, click the blue '1 header row' phrase and enter the number of header rows in your table.
- Also, you can split a table by a certain number of characters in the key column. For example, my key column has the abbreviation of names of the days of week: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun. If I split the table without indicating the number of characters, I'll get seven tables for each value. If I enter '1' into the Number of characters field, only the first characters of the values will be compared, and I'll get six tables, as Sat and Sun will be joined together in one table.
