Dear script kings,

I was workout the script for based on the table (xml workflow).

I was done the script automatically apply paragraph style in the table. below my coding.

allTables = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().getElements();
 for (aTable=0; aTable<allTables.length; aTable++)
{
           var myTable = allTables[aTable];

            if(myTable.rows.length >1)
            {
                  myTable.autoTag(); 
                  for (rw=0; rw<myTable.rows.length; rw++)
                  {
                      if(rw==0)
                      {
                        myTable.rows[rw].cells.everyItem().paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle ="Table head";
                        }
                    else
                    {
                        myTable.rows[rw].cells.everyItem().paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle ="Table Text";

Hi

You need to map styles to tags but first state the associations:

var doc = app.activeDocument;
var tag = doc.xmlTags.item("p");
var style = doc.paragraphStyles.item("Table head");
var map = doc.xmlImportMaps.add(tag,style);
doc.mapStylesToXMLTags();

There were several bug fix versions of InDesign CS6. Maybe that would explain the difference?
What is your exact version?

Hold down the cmd key and chose "About inDesign..." to see the exact version number.
My version of CS6 on Mac OSX is 8.1.0.419.

HI Laubender

I have attached screenshot based on the your comment friends. Please check and tell me one good solution.

DB File Version: 8.0

Advance Thanks.

I would second Uwe's answer. Check any possible updates available for your InDesign CS6.

If still not working, you can still reach the text object inside cell, look at the applied style and append a tag to that text object.

Or do a GREP search with applied style option and look if found text parent is a cell and then append the tag to the text object.

please give other way (solution) friend

Open the manual ?
