Table Puzzle
Today, I received a file from my friend which consist of many tables. All the
tables are fine except 2 tables on a page. Remember the Select Table button which appears when you move your mouse around the table, which we use to Select and Move the table easily. On those 2 tables the button is on the right side. I tried all the Table Properties but it is still on the right side. On all other tables it is on the left side. When I tried copying a pasting those 2 tables in a new document the button still remains on the right side. When I tried paste special with different ways another strange thing happen. When I use "Paste as Unformatted Text" so later I can use "Text To Table" the hole text was Transform. The entire table transform its text from right to left instead of left to right. E.g. 5th column became the 1st one and the 1st become the last one. So confusing. Any Guess or Idea is most welcome. |

Table Puzzle
Hi ?B?UmFqS29obGk=?=,
Today, I received a file from my friend which consist of many tables. All the tables are fine except 2 tables on a page. Remember the Select Table button which appears when you move your mouse around the table, which we use to Select and Move the table easily. On those 2 tables the button is on the right side. I tried all the Table Properties but it is still on the right side. On all other tables it is on the left side. When I tried copying a pasting those 2 tables in a new document the button still remains on the right side. When I tried paste special with different ways another strange thing happen. When I use "Paste as Unformatted Text" so later I can use "Text To Table" the hole text was Transform. The entire table transform its text from right to left instead of left to right. E.g. 5th column became the 1st one and the 1st become the last one. So confusing. It sounds as if some kind of right-to-left formatting was turned on where ever these table originated. These days, there are so many RTL options, it's difficult to guess where to start... With which languages is the text in these tables formatted (Tools/Language/Set language)? What message does running this little macro display (make sure the cursor is in a table)? Sub IsTableRTL() msgBox Selection.Tables(1).TableDirection _ =wdTableDirectionRtl End Sub Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 17 2005) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
