Is it possible to hide a table?
One can hide text by creating a style and hiding the text associated with
this style. So is it then possible to hide a whole table? Steven Craig Miller New Lenox, IL (USA) |

Select the whole table, including the End of Row characters, then format,
font, hidden. Hope this helps DeanH "StevenM" wrote: One can hide text by creating a style and hiding the text associated with this style. So is it then possible to hide a whole table? Steven Craig Miller New Lenox, IL (USA) |

Hmm, I don't see that happening.
What I did notice yesterday when I had a play was if you had applied Hidden to the text only and then selected the whole table and applied Hidden, Word seemed to get confused a tad. Clearing all Hidden from everything (clean the slate so to speak) and then applying Hidden to the whole table, again, seemed to settle Word down. Hope this works for you.

In the Font dialog box, a selection with conflicting settings would be
indicated by a checked box which is also grey (or a "filled" box in Word 2007). You can click it repeatedly to get the setting you want for the whole selection. Note that for large selections, Word may always report conflicting settings (this applies not only to the hidden attribute but to other settings as well). :-( -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "DeanH" wrote in message ...
