Hello,

I've created a table format where the header straddles two columns and I've saved it every way I can think of(Update All, Global Update Options, etc.) but when I insert a new table using the format, it comes in with the header split into two cells.

How can I have a table format that inserts a table with a header that straddles two cells?

I'm running FrameMaker 8 on Windows XP Professional.

Thanks,

Tim

Straddled cells are not stored as part of the table formats.

If you need to use the same custom table, you can set up a sample table that you copy/paste from another document, from the same document (reference page), or use the AutoText plug-in (http://www.siliconprairiesoftware.com).
