Tables

[Guest]

It seems that Frame 8 is no better than previous versions when going round-trip with respect to tables. When I create a non-CALS table, and attempt to round-trip it, it returns a one-column, multi-row table concatenated cells.

Is this a read-write-rules issues. I've tried adjusting the rules according to the Developer's Guide, but to no avail.......thanks for the help...bl

Hi William,

Looks like that your round trip does nor preserve the number of columns. It that attribute (typically the name is cols) is missing, the result is always a single column table.

Check your dtd for proper attribute and make the mapping in rw-rules.

William,

As Martti says, you'll need a rule something like the following, with of course a DTD that allows the applicable attribute:

attribute "refcols" is fm property columns;
