It seems that the idea is that you separate these characters by hyphens or tabs to indicate the widths of the columns you need.
How can I configure OOo to create a table the width of the page, as it does with the Create Table icon?
One way would be to put a right tab at the right margin and the type plus-tab-plus. But that would probably not count as a shortcut!
And what is the difference between these shortcuts?
Don't know. I suspect none. The help text mentions only plus signs, hyphens, and tabs, but lots of other characters appear to work.
I tried finding the differences in the documentation, but I could not find it. So feel free to RTFM me with the exact location, it will be appreciated.
This is an element of AutoCorrect, so there is a setting at Tools | AutoCorrect... | Options | Create table. And there is an entry in the help text at AutoCorrect function;options.
I trust this helps. Brian Barker --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
