Hi Elliot,
I don't know if you can set up a template, but it's fairly simple to redo your shading after adding or deleting rows. Just select two rows by click-dragging the row numbers on the left. Right-click the selection and click 'copy'. Select the area that you want to shade, right-click and select 'paste special'. In the paste special dialogue, uncheck all the boxes except 'formats'.

I have been working with OOo for a while now. There is one thing that still baffles me. In a table in calc I shade every other row with 10% gray for easy reading on the list I maintain. I then copy paste it into writer so I can add a banner and better formatting. I can't see where one might automatically set a shade pattern for a spreadsheet. Everytime I add or delete a person from my list I have to manually shade and unshade the pattern. If there is a way to do it with the current 2.1 version I cannot find it. Please let me know if there is an option I'm not aware of and if not, where I might suggest this feature for future releases of OOo.
Thanks,
Elliot Somers
