Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ too wide table

[modesty]

Hello,
I am quite new too this, but I have been googling my issue without any result.

I have several tables were tha last row is appearing under the first row (seems like the page is not wide enough).
How can i fix this ?
Is it possible til divde the word in the head row to make it slimer ?

StatRes_under arbeid.tex

Here is an example on one of my tables.

Hi modesty,

Welcome to the LaTeX community!

Your example has some errors: the number of columns doesn't match with the tabular preamble, you have an additional \end{tabular}, your missing at least the booktabs package for the \toprule command...

How about this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{booktabs,array,tabu}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}[!htb]
  \footnotesize
  \caption{Effektiviseringspotensialet for politidistrikter, 2008}
