Word 2007 table effects
I cannot apply table effects in Word 2007. Help text tells me to right
click in table and click Select Table. This command doesn't appear, nor does the Effects button I see on the Help screen shot. I can do what I want in Publisher, but when I paste the table into Word, the effects are lost. I also don't understand why table styles don't always reflect the theme I choose (so when I change the theme, the table colours don't change). Can I cause a table to aopt theme colours other than by applying them manually? Can anyone help. Thanks |

Word 2007 table effects
Riverboat,
What table effects are you referring to? I know there are table effects you can apply to PowerPoint tables, things like shadow, reflection and such. Those are not available in Word, as far as I know. You can copy paste the table in Word as a picture though. As to the selection bit, you can use the old method of selecting, just click on the 4 arrow icon in the upper left corner of the table or press Alt+shift+5 (numeric keypad). Or go to the Format tab, table group, selection button. Table colours do update here when applying a different document theme. At least when you applied a specific table style. Could be you used your own colours in the table, by own colours I mean you choose the more colours button when applying a shade/border using the shading/border button on the table styles group of the design ribbon. -- Luc Sanders MVP - PowerPoint "riverboat" schreef in bericht oups.com...
