FrameMaker -- removing heading rows in existing tables
Recent online help work has exposed the fact that one of our table formats has a heading row that isn't needed. In print we never noticed, but in the Help, we're using a different background colour for heading rows, and we see a simple table with the first row in a different colour for no good reason. Is there a convenient way to update our existing tables in FrameMaker so that the heading row is converted to a body row for this format? ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
Re: FrameMaker -- removing heading rows in existing tables
Jim, One easy way would be to create a new Table Format, identical to the one with the colored heading row but without the heading row. Then apply this format to the table you don't want to have a heading. --- On Fri, 11/28/08, Jim Owens [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Jim Owens [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: FrameMaker -- removing heading rows in existing tables To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], framers@lists.frameusers.com Date: Friday, November 28, 2008, 11:47 AM Recent online help work has exposed the fact that one of our table formats has a heading row that isn't needed.

Re: FrameMaker -- removing heading rows in existing tables
Thanks, I'll keep it in mind. I was hoping to update the existing table format somehow, so that we don't have to add a new format to the catalog or manually edit each table.

Re: FrameMaker -- removing heading rows in existing tables
Hi, Jim: Table formats don't set the number or size of rows or columns; creating or modifying a table sets these features. Table formats remember the size and number of columns and rows of the selected table when you create or revise a table format. For existing tables, you might try selecting and merging (Table Straddle) the two heading rows. This combines the content of the two rows, so you may need to do some clean up editing. To revise the format to one heading row, select a new one-heading row table, and click Update All in the Table Designer. New tables will have the revised format.

Thanks. I guess we'll have to update the existing tables manually, one way or another.
