How to copy table formatting in Word 2003 from a table to another table?

I am using Word 2003 with data over multiple tables all requiring same formatting in terms of cell and column width. How do I copy the formatting from one table to another. I cannot paste the table over and over again.How to copy table formatting in Word 2003 from a table to another table?
If you find an easy solution to this, I'd like to know about it. That said, this is relatively easy - it is just a round-about way of doing it.



Create a macro to perform the same function (adjusting the width of the tables). Macros record what you do (exactly what you do - they can't think for themselves) and when you play the macro - it replicates the action.



- FIRST THING - select a table

- Start recording a macro (go to your Tools menu --%26gt; Macros --%26gt; Record new macro)

- Give it a name, and assign the macro to a keyboard shortcut (click on the keyboard and press the shortcut key combination - eg. SHIFT + CTRL + G) press close/OK

- NOW THE MACRO IS RECORDING, so do everything neatly and in order (I suggest writing down the steps and measurements before you try)

- Right click on the table and go to table properties

- Alter the table columns the way you want them to be, press OK to exit table properties

- STOP THE MACRO by pressing the stop button or Tools --%26gt; Macro --%26gt; Stop recording



Now you should be able to use the macro. Remember that macros can't think for themselves - so they don't know what table you want to have formatted. That is why you need to select the table FIRST and then use your shortcut key to perform the macro.



This should work for you - I've used similar macros to apply shading to tables and alter cell margins.



If you stuff it up, you can go to Tools --%26gt; Macros --%26gt; Macros and delete the macros that you've made.

How do you repair a wood table chipped edge?

I've got a dark wood coffeee table that has about a 1 inch wide edge chipped off of it. It's more than a gouge, but less than a chunk and would require filler/shaping to replicate the shape of the table edge. What is the best material to use and how do I ensure I match the color of the table?How do you repair a wood table chipped edge?
what kind of wood is it? If you can't answer that don't do it your self. if it is a veiner on partical board or fiber board throw it away and buy another if it is an antique take it to a restoration expert. I would go to an woodworkers store buy a peice of drop of that kind of wood cut out a plug glue in another peice and then match the color stain. but baring expert workmanship min wax makes wax crayons that will match just about every color rub it in place then polish with a clean cotton cloth hard and fast enough to melt the wax

How do I clean my breakfast table?

Just recently I purchased a dark wood high ';bar table'; for a dining room table in a small apt. However, when I clean it with pledge and put the placemats on top the placemats seem to turn the table a lighter color. I think they are soaking in the pledge so I've tried to keep them off for a few hours to let the pledge set but it still happens. Does anyone know of any cleaners that will just ';clean'; dark wood not ';polish'; it?How do I clean my breakfast table?

A damp cloth.
Wood will turn dark when exposed to light, particularly sunlight, even when it's finished. It has nothing to do with what you're using to clean it.



I recently had hardwood floors installed and finished. I had stored a cabinet in a studio for 6 months while our house was being remodeled and part of it got exposed to sunlight every day. The part that got exposed was darker than the rest of the cabinet. I asked the floor guy about this and he said that I just had to leave the whole cabinet in a place where it got the same light, and it would eventually all become the same color again. Sure enough, it did after a couple of weeks.
beeswax and orange oil by Howards. find it at home depot and other places like that.



you might want to make some liners for your place mats. get some light weight felt and cut just smaller than your place mats.

How do you make a beer pong table?

I'm planning on having some football tailgates at my house this fall and I think a beer pong table would be a nice feature at such gatherings. I'd like to be able to use the 60'; round plastic table that I already have as the base for a board on which the game could be set up.



Does anyone know what the standard size board is for beer pong tables?



Also, are there any special prepartions in the process of making a beer pong table, such as sanding and/or priming?How do you make a beer pong table?
The dimensions of the table can vary but it is generally accepted that it should be rectangular, long, and somewhat narrow. A standard 4x8 piece of plywood is long enough but you may want to cut a foot of width off of it. It all depends on what your house rules are. Its a good idea to seal it after you paint it to prevent any damage from excess liquids. Several coats of polyurethane should do. That will not prevent the board from warping though. You may want to build a 2x4 framing underneath it. You could probably just go to any hardware store and tell what your doing, they can help with the materials.

Well back in my college days (only been out two years) we just used an old ping pong table, so I'd say thats the best size, but if round is all you have, go for it that, just split it in the middle and be creative, such as outlining the cups spots for the intial triangle. Another suggestion if you do make a rectangle wood table, waterproofing it is a must, so just follow instructions on waterproof prep before finshing

How do I link fields from Access tables so that a value automatically comes up in another table?

I would like to link a field (primary key) of the parent table (1,2,3) to match the children in the child table. So if Joe Williams has two children, his unique id is 1 and then in the child table his first child is 1a and second child is 1b. The next parent would be 2 etc. And as I add new students can Access automatically link these fields to create the right ID?



I've tried everything...



THANK YOU!How do I link fields from Access tables so that a value automatically comes up in another table?
Here's what Access will do automatically, but you have to set it up according to the rules:



The child table, while it has its own primary key, must have a field called the foreign key that contains the parent number (forget the 1a, 1b etc, you can list them by birth order using the DOB field which I am assuming is present):



So you have a field called ParentNo as primary key in the parent table, and another field called ParentNo in the children table, called the foreign key.



Then you link the two tables together in the relationships view by dragging the ParentNo field from the parent table to the ParentNo field in the children table. You should also enforce referential integrity.



Then you create a form on table Parent: try autoform for a quick look



The presence of the relationship will cause a form with a subform to be created: the subform will have a blank record, into which you can insert data



Adding children to these fields will ';automatically'; fill in the correct parent number for those children in the children table.



Hope that helps.

How to remove scratches from an oak table?

My friends and I were playing this game where we used some hardened plastic cups as instruments on this old table my mom has. After about 10 min, we noticed that some indentations and scratches were left on the table. This table is very special to my mom, and it is not a classic wooden kitchen table. It appears to be red oak, or something close to that. Any suggestions on how to remove/fix these? How to remove scratches from an oak table?
If they are just surface scratches, you can get a stain pen from any hardware store and rub that into it. They are usually sold in packages of 3 and you can mix the colors to get a match, or try to see if 1 matches out of the package. If it is a lacquered, or shiny finish, then you can reapply the finish on top if it. However, if you have actually scratched into the wood and made grooves, you will need a professional repair job.



GOOD LUCK!
