I created this table in Illustrator, now I need to create it in InDesign. Is there a way to do this in table, row, column styles?

Thank you

    You would have to fake it. You cannot select columns or rows or even individual cells and change the opacity.

    The following screenshot is a table created in InDesign with various grays filling the body cells to make it look transparent even though it's not. The header is cyan in some cells and cyan + gray in other cells.
