[Proposal Writer 2]

Hi,
I'm trying to create a default style for tables to be used by my department.
According to my company's new guidelines, the header row of the table must
be blue, the second row must be green, and the even rows must be gray. I've
had no problems with setting the colors of the first row, or the even rows.
However, Word 2003 doesn't give me the option of formatting the second row
when I try to make a style. I have tried every work-around I know, but I'm
about to go bald from pulling out my hair. I'll take any suggestions anybody
has. Thanks millions,
Lisa

As you've seen, table styles really don't work very well. You might have
better luck creating a sample table and saving it as an AutoText entry.
