You need to put writing mode on table to affect the table cells. What you've done above doesn't change the start/end edges of the cell, just the start/end edges of the content in the cell. The cell still maps start to left and end to right. Note that you have to make the choice on the table as a whole. > > > (Refer May 2011 thread "Complex Script, BIDI text supported?") > > cheers ..
