Hi Kamal,
The steps and amount of work needed to do this in Word 2007 can depend on how the content was originally created and how formatting was applied to it and the file format you're saving in (i.e. .docX will have features that saving as .doc [Word97-2003] documents will not have) Under Office Button=Word Options=Popular check that [x] Enable Live Preview is turned on. With the document open to a place where you can see both a table and a chart use View=Thumbnails. This is primarily to shift the display of the document to the right for the next step g so you'll be able to watch the results in the document with Live Preview. On the Page Layout tab, in the Themes group, mouse over the various Page Layout=Themes icons. Do the colors of the segments in your charts and in the table change to match the themes? If just the chart is changing, select the table and from Table Tools=-Design apply a Table Style and then retry the Themes. (you can do the same for a chart in a combination of Chart Tools=Design Chart Tools=Format If the appearance didn't change (in some cases from the original document being created in a prior version using the features of that version) then you may need to apply Chart and Table styles manually to replace any direct formatting. The Table Grid style that Gramma tim mentioned, is still available in the Table Styles ribbon. Right clicking on the icon in the styles ribbon and using 'Modify Table Style' will let you change the defaults. You can also create a model table to your liking, select it, then open the Table styles gallery and choose 'New Table Style' to have it available to apply to other tables. After applying a theme/table style to one table in your document you can then 'walk' the tables in the document by using the 'Select Browse Object' (silver ball on the lower right of the vertical scroll bar)/ 'Browse by Table' - then apply your table style to each table. 'Browse by Graphic' - if you created the charts with Office 2007 tools 'Browse by Field' - if you used the prior version Graph/Chart tool Unfortunately, Word's Find/Replace dialog doesn't include Themeable content replacements such as Chart and Table styles in its list, but one of the folks here may offer a quick macro that will run through the document for you and apply matching formatting and/or themes to all charts or tables. ============ "kamal" wrote in message ... Hi! I am currently using office 2007. The file I am working on, has got a number of tables and charts, all in different styles. I want to ensure uniform styles for both tables and charts. For tables, is it possible to change the different styles of all tables to one common style at one go, as in, is it necessary to select table one by one and then change the style? (This takes a lot of time) For charts, I want that all pie charts should be in same style and without borders. Is it possible to do so without selecting each chart seperately and changing its style? Thanks! -- Bob Buckland ?:-) MS Office System Products MVP *Courtesy is not expensive and can pay big dividends* |
