[Tex/LaTex] LaTex error stating incomplete item list while creating a table

itemizetables

I get an error in LaTex which states: "There are no entries found in a list you have created. Make sure you label list entries using the \item command, and that you have not used a list inside a table."

This is the table code created where the error shows up.

\begin{table}[H]

\centering

\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{%

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|}

\hline

\multicolumn{3}{|c|}{\flushleft{\hspace{0.1cm}\includegraphics[width=0.15\textwidth]{image}}\hspace{1cm} \textbf{\begin{tabular}[c]{@{}c@{}}ABC\\ \\ ABC\\ ABC\\ \\ Shivanand\end{tabular}}} \\ \hline
\begin{tabular}[c]{@{}l@{}}\textit{Approved} \\ \\ 2018-06-10\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}[c]{@{}l@{}}\textit{Examiner} \\ \\ ABC\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}[c]{@{}l@{}}\textit{Supervisor} \\ \\ ABC\end{tabular} \\ \hline
& \begin{tabular}[c]{@{}l@{}}\textit{Commissioner} \\ \\ ABC \end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}[c]{@{}l@{}}\textit{Contact Person} \\ \\ ABC\end{tabular} \\

\hline

\end{tabular}%

}

\end{table}

Could anyone enlighten me with the mistake? I don't see any list which I have created in the code.

Best Answer

I think the error comes from the tabular inside the \multicolumn.

However, I also think you're complicating your life with all those tabular environments inside the main tabular, in your case they are useless.

Please note that to have some vertical space between two table rows you don't need to add an empty row, but you can simply write \\[some_dimension].

Moreover, instead of resizing the table \textwidth I used a tabularx environment.

I also added \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2} in the preamble and a \rule{0pt}{11pt} in the header for better vertical spacing.

I hope the result is what you need:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{makecell}
\usepackage[export]{adjustbox}
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{float}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[H]

    \centering

        \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{|X|X|X|}
            \hline
            \multicolumn{1}{|c}{\includegraphics[width=0.15\textwidth, valign=c]{example-image}} 
                & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{\makecell{\rule{0pt}{11pt}\textbf{ABC}\\[10pt] \textbf{ABC}\\ \textbf{ABC}\\[10pt] \textbf{Shivanand}}}\\
            \hline
            \textit{Approved} & \textit{Examiner} & \textit{Supervisor}\\[14pt] 
            2018-06-10 & ABC & ABC \\ 
            \hline
            & \textit{Commissioner} & \textit{Contact Person} \\[14pt] 
            & ABC & ABC \\
            \hline
        \end{tabularx}  
\end{table}
\end{document}
