Bold fonts in tables
I created a table with bold headings. When I was entering data in the
columns, the bold was automatically enabled and I had to disable it. It continues every row. How can I stop that. Then I created a new document with multiple tables - used NO bold anywhere and on the 10th table I began getting the automatic bold again. Help! Gabba |

Bold fonts in tables
Please tell us more about how you created the tables. It matters whether you
are --- using the regular text style in the tables and applying manual formatting --- using paragraph styles created for the table headings and table body --- copying and pasting (or using auto text) to insert your table layout --- using a table style where you specified a font and embellishment (like bold) Once we know a bit more, I'm sure someone will be ble to help you.

Bold fonts in tables
-- On both tables I used the Table tab, created a new table with 9 columns and then typed in the headings using the default font. I didn't make any change in the font and I didn't use any paragraph formatting or any special formatting. I just typed the headings after enabling the bold key. I used Auto Fit to contents on both. On the first table I enabled the bold for each individual heading. Then, on some of them, I had to disable the bold for the column information. So on the 2nd document, which was a series of the same formatted table, which I set up the same way, I didn't use any bold anywhere and I still had the same problem but it didn't start happening until after I had entered data in about 10 tables. Later on, I went back to some of the first tables to enter data and had the same problem where I hadn't had the problem when I first created the table and entered the original data. Hope this is enough information. Gabba "PamC via OfficeKB.com" wrote: Please tell us more about how you created the tables.

Bold fonts in tables
Yes, I think that's plenty information. Unfortunately, I don't see where
the problem could be. So I can only give general advice. Turn off Keep track of formatting, do not allow Word to create styles based on your formatting, and clear Automatically update check box in the Modify Styles dialog. Create and apply paragraph styles for table headings and table text instead of applying manual formatting. Good luck. Sorry to have taken so long to answer.
