table properties, Autotext, and autoformatting
Hello!
We're building templates that include the common features in either autotext or set with shortcut keys. For our tables, I set 2 styles (table Headers and table text), and then I set table properties in table-autoformat. This seems to work somewhat similar to the table properties in FrameMaker. First question can being he * I can't figure out how to assign paragraph styles to section using table autoformat features. Is there some obscure way I'm missing? To continue, I've them created several tables with varying columns and placed them in Autotext so that they can easily be retrieved and used. When I transfer autotext entries from one template to another (creating somewhere around 20 templates), table properties don't seem to go with the tables. So if the user uses autotext to insert a table, the table comes in with some weird standard formatting. I can't figure out how/if this can be edited. I do bring in the new autoformat table style. I've also tried to edit the Table NOrmal style, and it's grayed out. Help, please! Sheila |

Hi ?B?c2hlaWxhbQ==?=,
* I can't figure out how to assign paragraph styles to section using table autoformat features. Is there some obscure way I'm missing? No, it's not supported. I've them created several tables with varying columns and placed them in Autotext so that they can easily be retrieved and used. When I transfer autotext entries from one template to another (creating somewhere around 20 templates), table properties don't seem to go with the tables. So if the user uses autotext to insert a table, the table comes in with some weird standard formatting. I can't figure out how/if this can be edited. I do bring in the new autoformat table style. I've also tried to edit the Table NOrmal style, and it's grayed out. I think this would depend on a number of factors: the default table style set on for the user profile. The definitions of built-in table styles (if you're using built-in styles). Best would probably be to 1. Create your own table styles (don't re-use built-in ones) 2. Copy these into the target template, first 3. Then copy in the AutoText entry Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) 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 :-) |
