Thanks for the advice. Most of the time in fact I don't. But the problem is
the same, if I set the size of NORMAL to 10, everything else will want to be
10, unless I specify otherwise. I just wish I could set the table font size
to 10 as it should be possible. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for your input. I will use paragraph styles instead. I can't set
the
definition of NORMAT size to 10 otherwise I will affect most of my paper.

Thanks again and lets hope that this will get fixed.

Hi ?B?Z2lvdmFubmk=?=,

Yes, I've reported it in the beta tests in both Word 2002 and 2003.
Apparently,
it doesn't have a particularly high priority...

FWIW, if I change the definition of the NORMAL style to 10 pt, then the
table
style will accept and reflect it.

I am having the following problem when setting up a table using Word
2003:

I create a table and then open the Style and Formatting side pane.
Then I
click on the table format that I just applied and select Modify. I am
able to
correctly set all the properties I want (font type, bold, italic)
except for
Font Size. I can select any font size except for size 10. If I select
10 the
size box remains empty, any other size will work. Is this a bug or I
am doing
somethng wrong?
