Anyone know how to work with tables??
I have inserted a table into a page and need to "outline" it with a black border for all cells. I have been unable to figure out how to do this.
Thanks in advance for your help.

| Simply give the table a dark background (black) then go to the "Cell Properties" window and apply a White background for every cell so you'll see a white table with black borders. |

Actually, I have another page that has a special background and I need to outline a table but I need it to be transparent so that the background page is consistent. (If I block the table and set the background color there is no identical color with the same pattern). Can you let me know what I am missing? |

The HTML table object doesn't work in this way, you have to choose if to make it transparent or non-transparent and only if it is non-transparent you can outline it.
If you need only to make the border (of the entire table) I'll make this feature. |

Yes, so are you saying that you can allow for the entire table border with keeping the background transparent? Inside doesn't matter. Its just easier to update information and numbers in a table rather than a picture object.
Thank You! |

| Yes, the border of the entire table can be set leaving the entire table transparent. |
