How to change the default cell margin of Word (2003)?
The default is 0.19cm, & I always want to change it to 0.05cm.
Is there an .ini file or setting somewhere that I can change this value? |

How to change the default cell margin of Word (2003)?
In Normal.dot, you can customize any of the table styles except Table
Normal, and unfortunately that (or maybe Table Grid) is what you get by default. -- Suzanne S.

I think you can set a table style as the default, which would solve
that problem. (I cannot test this, though, since I'm currently using Word 2000.) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

How to change the default cell margin of Word (2003)?
In Word 2000 you can select a table AutoFormat as the default but not modify
it. I could test this in Word 2003 I guess, except that I have Table Normal set as my default table style. g -- Suzanne S.

I could test this in Word 2003 I guess, except that I have Table
Normal set as my default table style. g From this I conclude that no testing is required: you can in fact set a default table style in Word 2003. :-) Thanks for refreshing my memory on this. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S.

Yes, you can set a default in Word 2000, 2002, or 2003, but only in 2002 and
2003 can you modify the table style. The concept of table "styles" was introduced in Word 2002; before that they were just table AutoFormats and had to be used as is. -- Suzanne S.
