Default Creating Space Between Table and Following Paragraph

I'm trying to figure out a way to force Word (Word 2000) to create space
between my tables and the following paragraphs, akin to the "Space After"
property of the paragraph formatting.

Thanks

There is no built-in way to do this, unfortunately. What you can do is
create a paragraph style which has some Spacing Before defined and apply the
style to the paragraph after the table.

Thanks Stefan, but unfortunately I had already tried that and I'm not a big
fan of it, due to is relative "inellegance".

It's either that or an empty paragraph.

It's one of the (astonishingly many) things OpenOffice Writer does better
