autotext entry containing table comes in with text in number format
I have an autotext entry that contains a table. Each cell of the table has a
specific (non-numbered) style attached to it (cleared formatting several times, reapplied styles, etc.). Everything looks great. I save the text containing the table as an autotext entry. When I insert the autotext entry into a document, all of the cells of the table are numbered. Example of what it *should* look like (note, this is a simple example showing four rows and one column - actual table is more complex) ____________________ (Signature) ____________________ (Print name and title) Example of what it comes in looking like... 1) - _______________________ 2) - (Signature) 3) - ________________________ 4) - (Print name and title) where - is a tab character Help! Where on earth is the numbering coming from? Brenda |

autotext entry containing table comes in with text in number format
Hi Newt,
Hmmmm, there are a number of possibilities. 1. Do these styles with which the table is formatted exist in document into which you're inserting the table? 2. Word 2002/2003 use "table styles" for the basic table formatting. I usually wouldn't expect numbering to be associated, but... If you insert a new table into a document, is it numbered? 3. When you insert the AutoText, is any immediately adjacent paragraph numbered? If it is, that's probably what's causing the problem - select the table - Ctrl+Q, Ctrl+Spacebar [Addition] Sorrry, Word 2003 on XP Pro system I have an autotext entry that contains a table.

autotext entry containing table comes in with text in number format
1. Yes, they exist... can save to autotext and insert into same document and
it was there 2. nope, not numbered 3. no, no numbered paragraph nearby Actually, however, I was able to solve it by using the new Format -- Reveal Formatting. I was able to delete the numbering - I saved it again and it is now fine. This was an existing autotext in Word 2000. I have had similar problems with existing autotext - coming into 2003 centered instead of left justified. That one is fixed by simply correctly and recreating the autotext. Very odd. Thanks for the response. Newt "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote in message news:VA.000097eb.011a9e67@speedy... Hi Newt, Hmmmm, there are a number of possibilities. 1.

your table in a new document.
