Create a new table style based on an existing table in a document

Hi,
In a document I'm working on, there is a specific table. It is made in the past by a colleague, and it has a very suitable format.
Therefore I would like to use the layout of this table on all future tables in my document (or even in others).
Is there an option to select my table, and create a new table style with it, so that I can use it over and over again? That would be very helpful.
I'm working in MS Word, MS Office Professional Plus 2010, on a Windows 7 64-bit OS.
Best regards, Sietske
Ps.: I know
a question like this was already asked, but the answer was quite dissatisfying (because it was not answering the question)
Pps: Note that I'm now creating a new table style from scratch, so an answer to the above question is not that urgent, but it would still be nice to know for future use.

you can  use format painter
i hope that you already know about it.
Nope, not the right answer. With Format Painter, you can copy the format of the table, but you can't create a new Table Style with it. I am looking for a solution as well.

  • Creating a new paragraph style based on text in a document

    I'm working on some scripts for a new ad our company is working on. They are wanting to have the ability to change the font weekly in the ads. However, they want the style sheets to change based on this. What I am having to do is write a script that gets the properties of the different paragraphs in the selected text frame, and make paragraph styles. Is there a way to get the properties of paragraph 1, and use that information to make a new paragraph style? Here is what I have so far;
    set charaStyle to get properties of character charaSelect of paragraph paraOne of myBox
    set makeStyle to make character style with properties {name:"MF Price" & charaSelect, based on:properties of character charaSelect}
    We are using InDesign CS 3. Thank you in advance for the help.

    this way - build ParaStyle definition from selected text - works only in UI
    in scripting you need to write your own procedure - read all params and set them one-by-one in ParaStyle definition

  • RH9: Can't create a new RoboHelp Style for tables

    I'm using TCS3 (FM 10, RH9) in a Windows XP environment.
    I have some tables in FM10 that I want to map to a RH style.  I'm on the Conversion Settings dialog box, and don't have a RH style to map to.  In RH7 I was able to create a new RH style and then map my FM style to it.  I don't see where that is possible in RH9.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Peter,
    Yes, the CSS that I am using is the one that I used to create the table. I use Dreamweaver for my CSS.  Here is the HTML that was created in DW when I created the table in RH:
    table.MultiColumn {
            font-family: Tahoma;
            font-size: 11pt;
            border-left-style: Solid;
            border-left-color: #000000;
            border-right-style: Solid;
            border-right-color: #000000;
            border-top-style: Solid;
            border-top-color: #000000;
            border-bottom-style: Solid;
            border-bottom-color: #000000;
            x-border-spacing: 0px;
            border-left-width: 1px;
            border-right-width: 1px;
            border-top-width: 1px;
            border-bottom-width: 1px;
            padding-left: 2px;
            padding-right: 2px;
            padding-top: 2px;
            padding-bottom: 2px;
    table.MultiColumn td {
            padding-left: 2px;
            padding-right: 2px;
            padding-top: 2px;
            padding-bottom: 2px;
    Please note that MultiColumn is one the FM table paragraph tags. When I created the table in RH, I named it MultiColumn and then mapped the FM style to the RH style. Here is the topic HTML:
    <a name="XREF_id09AND0Z0DHS"></a>Deployed Version field descriptions
    Following are field descriptions for the
    Deployed Version page views.
    There is nothing that indicates that there is a table in this topic.  We didn't have this problem in RH7.  All the tables came over beautifully.
    Thanks for your persistent help.

  • Create a new Font style format in pages

    I have looked very hard in pages and I cant seem to find a setting to change the default fonts and settings. I have just created a document with the settings I want and I saved it as a dummy that I just duplicate when I want to work with pages. Is there a way to create a new font style format so that you can just choose that style and get your settings? I just don't see how its possible that there is not a way to edit the default settings in pages...

  • Update columns in Table A based on columns in Table B for more than 500K rows

    Guys,
    I need to update 9 columns in table A based on value from table B for for more than 500K rows.
    So what is best way to achieve this. I am thinking of writing a Procedure with cursor to update the rows of table A.
    When i googled about it, they say cursor will decrease the performance. So i have no clue how to go for this.
    Rough code which i though
    1) Procedure  with no parameter
    2) Will declare 9 variable to store value from cursor
    3) cursor will fetch row by row based on join condition between table a and table b
    4) i will pass column values from table B to variables
    5) will make an update statement for table A
    Please let me know if above method is correct or is there any other way to do this without using cursor.

    Guys,
    Below is the rough code i wrote as per my requirement. Does it look correct? As of now i dont have any platform to test it so any help with the below code is highly appreciated.  As i said i need to update more than 500K rows by matching Table
    A and Table B.  One more thing which i would like to add in below code, is to get log of all the rows that are in table B but not exist in table A.  Table A already has more than million data in it.
    Also not sure how the loop in below code willl run when @rowcount is become to zero?
    Please let me know if i need to consider performance related impact while running the script.

  • Is it possible to create a new iCloud account and permanently transfer existing store purchases to it?

    Is it possible to create a new iCloud account and permanently transfer existing store purchases to it?

    Thank you for taking the time to try to answer my question. Let me phrase it slightly differently...
    I have a very old appleid that I've used for store purchases. I had a MobileMe account that was upgraded to iCloud. I'd like to merge the account data. I've been hoping Apple would come up with a solution to this, but they haven't yet.
    So, I'm wondering if I should make a new account of some sort and try to transfer data to it from both of the old accounts. It sounds like that can't work.
    I suppose then that the only thing to do is manually transfer all the information from the old MobileMe account to the primary appleid (which is some sort of iCloud + Store combination, no?). That might not be that hard to do, but it is somewhat high risk.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate isn't installing on my iMac. Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition

    I have a 21.5" iMac (Late 2012) running OS X Mavericks. I'm trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate via Bootcamp but whenever i get to the setup part it goes wrong
    These are the steps I followed
    I selected all the options since I didn't have the drivers or an install disk
    it copied the Windows 7 iso image, downloaded the support software, and saved the support software to the flash drive (8GB)
    I selected a partition size - I gave windows roughly 100GB
    and I let it install
    Right now I'm at the part where it says " where do you want to install windows? I selected the bootcamp partition and formatted it. It now says
    "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information"
    WHAT DO I DO?

    I had to read the apple instructions several times before they started to make sense.  I burned my iso onto a DVD and had the required USB for support software.  Are you trying to use the single USB method?
    This article has a lot of info on the single usb method

  • Invoice Receipt document (TABLE RBKP) based on Sales Order (table VBAK).

    Hi Folks,
       I have to find Invoice Receipt document (Table RBKP) based on Sales Order (table VBAK).
       Please tell me how the two documents are linked.
    Thanks,
    Punit

    I don't know table RBKP, but I would start by seeing if I could find the value of RBKP-BELNR or XBLNR as the next document in table VBFA.  If found, then you know how to read VBFA forward from sales order (VBAK) to VBFA with correct next document type, then to RBKP with the document number....
    Don't know if this will work, but this is the first approach I would take.

  • How do I create a new paragraph Style in Pages for iPad?

    I opened an RTF document in iOS 6 Pages for iPad. How do I create new paragraph Syles?

    Style is a function of the template applied to the document (and/or the limited number built in to Pages). You can mofify the text or apply one of the built in styles, but I do not beleive within Pages in iOS you can create a new style.

  • Want to create a new dynamic DL based on the country location of the 365 license..

    We're presently in hybrid mode, but we'll soon be moving entirely to 365.  In preparation i'd like to start creating new dynamic distribution groups.  We have offices in Korea, China, EU, and the US.  My idea is to create the dynamic DL's
    based on the country where the license was applied.  In the example below, the users license was assigned in Korea.  So ideally my new dynamic DL would filter on that property (i.e. anyone's mailbox where the users license was assigned to Korea)
    to create an "All Korea" distribution group.
    Does anyone know what the powershell syntax might be? Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Interesting.  The command ran without error, but then when i checked the group through the portal it didn't display the recipient filter.  Seemed like it just created a generic dynamic DL and it was prompting me for things like mailbox type.

  • Can a plugin create a new catalog file based on the current (or a specified source) catalog?

    A little background: I've been looking for a tool that would allow me to host my photos from my network at home, but let me search my lightroom database (mainly by date, keyword, metadata, or location) on mobile devices (e.g. iPhone or iPad).  There are a lot of services that provide publishing to cloud storage (e.g. Google Drive, icloud, etc.) and have companion apps, but I've found their search capabilities lacking and I'd rather just source the files from home.  In my mind what I need is an even lighter weight SQLite database that contains the catalog information I want (and only that info) that I can sync with an app on my phone/tablet.  I could also have a directory of very small previews that could also be synced.  When I want a file I can select it and various higher resolution versions (up to and including the original file) could be stored in a local cache on the portable device.  I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
    In order to do this I need this lighter weight catalog file.  I was going to write a perl or swift (I'm writing this for OS X) script that used SQLite to pull the relevant data out of my catalog and generate the new mini-catalog, but I figured I should give the Lightroom SDK a shot.  I've never developed for Lightroom before and I don't know Lua, but I've got some time to learn.  The first thing I thought I should check out was to see if anyone had built a plugin that did what I'm hoping to do.  If so I could save a lot of time.  I figured this forum would be a good place to check to see if anyone knows of such a plugin.  If so, please let me know.  I'd much appreciate it.  If it's not possible, that would be good to know too.
    Thanks,
    David

    I doubt there is a way to create a new catalog via plugin (without some serious stunt - i.e. nothing in SDK supports it), and remember - open/active catalog is locked (sql will fail), so you can only do the script if Lr is closed or has a different catalog open.

  • Creating a table/temporary table joining two or three existing tables

    Hi,
    I want to perform a join on three tables and want that the result obtained should create a new table and get copied into it ?
    More clearly, I m performing some joins on three tables.
    I want that a new table(may be temporary) should be created that contains the column names and data of the result obtained after performing joins on the existing tables.
    Plz help me as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The problem is not in performing join.
    what the exact problem is that, a SELECT query is executed, and whatever the result is obtained, a new table should be created according to the result that table must be populated with that result.
    In Oracle we do like this........
    create table new_tablename as (select * from table1 left outer join table2 on (table1.id = table2.id))
    But in DB2 this query doesnt work. So what can be the corresponding query for DB2 ?? This is exactly what I want to know.
    Thanks
