Heading Rows Repeat / Includetext - XML -XSL
I include a large XML table formatted by XSL and it works fine, but now I
want to combine this with "Heading Rows Repeat", and this does not work. The table looses the supplementary headings everytime F9 is pressed. |

Heading Rows Repeat / Includetext - XML -XSL
Hi =?Utf-8?B?UGV0ZXIgQmVyZw==?=,
I include a large XML table formatted by XSL and it works fine, but now I want to combine this with "Heading Rows Repeat", and this does not work. The table looses the supplementary headings everytime F9 is pressed. IncludeText is a field. F9 updates the field. All editing and almost all formatting applied to a field will be lost when a field is updated. you can try adding the following switch to the IncludeText field code, but no guarantees it will work for this particular setting: \* MergeFormat Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

Heading Rows Repeat / Includetext - XML -XSL
Thank you Cindy for your answer, but sorry, it can not be the solution. You
see, my work depends in a very high degree upon the MergeFormat. All the extra formating like bold and text size has been remembered, but not the heading information. I belive, it is a Word error, but perhaps there is a work around?

Peter,
I tried to find a solution to this problem about 2 years ago, and couldn't find one. You are correct, this is a bug, and Microsoft knows it but won't fix it. Let me know if you find a work around.

Heading Rows Repeat / Includetext - XML -XSL
Cindy,
There are many linked tables in my document, and it is very time consuming to locate each one in the document, and reset the "heading rows repeat" setting. Is there a macro that could do this automatically for all tables in the document. Thank you.

Hi Robert,
There are many linked tables in my document, and it is very time consuming to locate each one in the document, and reset the "heading rows repeat" setting. Is there a macro that could do this automatically for all tables in the document. Yes, this should be possible. Sample code to set the first row of each table to repeat: Sub SetHeadingRows() For each tbl in ActiveDocument.Tables tbl.Rows(1).HeadingFormat = True Next End Sub Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

Hi Robert,
I tried to find a solution to this problem about 2 years ago, and couldn't find one. You are correct, this is a bug, and Microsoft knows it but won't fix it. Did Microsoft say it was a bug, or that it's workign "as designed"? MergeFormat doesn't take everything into account, just certain formatting aspects. You may or may not agree with the design, but it's only a bug if it's not working as it was designed :-) Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

Cindy,
I think they said something to the effect of it being recognized as a product "limitation", and that they knew it should be fixed, and that they have had requests for it to be fixed, but that the demand wasn't high enough to justify adding it to their fix/improvements list.

I have tryed your suggestion, but receives an error saying: "Cannot access
individual rows in this collection because the table has vertically merged cells"?
