Marianne,

You might alsot try creating a table style. Table styles are available
in
word 2000-2007. (In 2003, Click on - format menu, Styles and Formating.
in
the Task pane, click New Style button select your options.)

When I create a new table I always have to change the settings. Is
there any
way that I can change the standard settings, such as margins? I know
that I
can select a new standard from the pre-defined tables and also how
many
columns and rows a new table should have. But that is not custom
made. Any
ideas?
