See full text

A number of predefined table formats are provided for formatting a table. A user converts a table into the predefined table format by selecting the range of cells for the table and then selecting the predefined table format to be applied to the range of cells of the table. The formatting is performed automatically by a data processing system. Heuristics are used to determine the structure of the table to be formatted. Separate parts of the table are then successively formatted in accordance with the selected predefined table format.
