overriding table formats
Is there a way to force a table that has had all kinds of format overruling to pick up the ruling properties of the table definition? I'm using Frame 8 (structured). I've tried changing to a different format and then changing back. I've tried importing the table formats from another doc and saying to override formats. I've tried creating an empty table and copying the offending rows into it, but the new table, which looked fine when created, picks up the ruling overrides. Thanks.
