Advanced Design Table Presentation

Ok, well, here it is. A lot of people helped me with the content. The
presentation for the local user group has to fit in about an hour, so there
is a lot that could have been said that was not said.

Anyway, some example files are included in the download.

K:

I haven't really played with it enough to understand all the ins and outs,
but here's the way I understand it:

Basically, I think I misspoke. It seems that the cell named "Family" isn't
necessary at all. I've tried it without that name, and the configurations
seem to work. Still, when SW autocreates a DT, the corner cell is named
"Family".

If you look in the help, under "Formatting a Design Table", it says that
the cell that marks the beginning of the data is named "Family", which by
default is A2. I guess "the intersection of the row and the column" isn't
a very good way of saying it, but I mean basically the upper left corner of
the DT data block.

The help seems to imply that what I wrote is correct, but in practice, it
looks like naming the cell is not really necessary.

The thanks for this really belongs to a bunch of people from this ng who
responded to my request for information and examples, I just put it in a
format I could present at a user group meeting.

Thanks again,

matt
