Default Paragraph formatting in table styles

It seems that the standard paragraph formatting in tables uses 6 pt after. I
am trying to delete this in a table style that I have created. Right now I
have to highlight the entire table and click format=== paragraph===and
adjust the after to 0 for each table I insert using the template. I thought
of changing the "table normal" but don't see a way to do that either. Is
there a way to do this?

Default Paragraph formatting in table styles

Hi ?B?TEFD?=,

It seems that the standard paragraph formatting in tables uses 6 pt after. I
am trying to delete this in a table style that I have created. Right now I
have to highlight the entire table and click format=== paragraph===and
adjust the after to 0 for each table I insert using the template. I thought
of changing the "table normal" but don't see a way to do that either. Is
there a way to do this?

Apparently we're discussing Word 2002, 2003 or 2007?

Which formatting a table uses depends firstly on the style applied to the
paragraph the cursor was in when the table was created. If it's not the Normal
style, then the paragraph style currently in-force takes precedence. Does that
help at all?

Default Paragraph formatting in table styles

Hi Cindy,
That's what I thought also. It seems that all of the built in table styles
are based on "Table Normal" but I can't figure out how to change this
template.
