I have two (or more) tables with varying column widths. I want to be able to select the first table and do a 'paint format' sort of procedure so that I can click in the second table and have it automatically adjust the column widths so that the tables are the same. How can that be done?
You can use the Cell Height and Width dialog box in conjunction with F4 to "record" and reuse the settings of a particular column: 1. Select a column whose settings you want to duplicate. 2. Display the Cell Height and Width dialog box (see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/TablePropPrbs.htm). Press OK to confirm the settings. 3. Select a column that should have the same settings, and press F4. 4. Repeat step 3 as many times as desired. Alternatively, you will have to use a macro. Ask in a programming newsgroup such as microsoft.public.word.vba.general for further assistance. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "bcm" wrote in message news:6C155C39-31B3-40AC-AA6A-F5304B450E6B@microsoft.com... >I have two (or more) tables with varying column widths.
