Hi Dušan,
>> Question: Is there a FASTER and little bit less anoying way to
create outline of tables with different thicknes and line stile, then
right click, menu, borders ......
You can use a style to save the formatting once you've created it the
first time. I'm not sure exactly what the borders are that you need to
apply but you can mix and match a few different styles to get what you
want. For instance, if you have three different types of formatting,
like the top row with only horizontal single thick lines; the body with
horizontal and vertical thin double lines; and the bottom row with a top
thick horizontal and a bottom double thick horizontal, for you would
create three styles: Top, Body, and End.
Here's how to do it in OpenOffice.org 2.0 Calc.
- First, format a group of cells the way you want them. Format the
smallest group you can depending on how the lines repeat.
- Then choose Format > Styles and Formatting.
- Select the cells you formatted. In the Styles and Formatting window
click the Cell Styles icon to be sure that's the kind you're going to
create, then click the New Style From Selection icon. Name the style in
the window that appears.
- To apply the style, select all the other cells where you want that
same formatting, and in the Styles and Formatting window, double-click
the style you just created.
To get that style into other documents, it's best longterm to create a
new default template with that style in it. The help topic Changing
Default Templates covers this.
In Writer, you would use an AutoFormat. Format the table as you want it,
then select it, choose Tables > AutoFormat, click Add, name the format,
and apply that format where you want it. Autoformats you create are
available outside the original document so you wouldn't need to do the
default template step.
HTH,
Solveig

I have similar (but differncing) tables of 20 - 30 rows total counting
cca 1000 rows. I will copy them to Writer and comment. The border
creating is time consuming nightmare.
Please advice
