Autoformat Edit: Possible?
I currently using a Database form field to generate a table in a Word
2000 document. But I am displeased with all of the autoformat templates. I would like to create my own. 3 questions: 1. Is that possible? If so... 2. Where are they? ....and... 3. how? I can't find any information about this on web. Nor can I find the templates on my computer to view. Can someone help me out? Chris Weber |

Unfortunately, no, in Word 2000 the best you can do is select your favorite
(default) Table AutoFormat. Word 2002 introduced "table styles" which allow you to create your own AutoFormat. -- Suzanne S.

Chris Weber You are stuck with the provided autoformats in Word 2000 but you might be able to get something nearer what you want by modifying the /l switch on the database field to only apply certain aspects of an autoformat that is fairly close to what you want.
