The Table Properties: Default Properties dialog box appears when you choose the Set as Default button in a tab in the Table Properties dialog box. Use this dialog box to choose whether you want to:
• change the defaults for all new tables in the current table document. To do this, choose OK.
• change the defaults for all new tables in the current table document and any new table documents you create. To do this, check the Update document template box and choose OK.
Note: The Set as Default option applies the changes only for the currently selected tab in the Table Properties dialog box. To apply the changes for more than one tab, choose the Set as Default button in each tab individually, and follow the same steps.
Settings in the following tabs can be applied to the current table document and to the template:
• Cell Contents
• Display
• Statistics
• Header and Footer
• Chart
For information on setting up templates, see Customizing Table Document Templates.
Settings in the following tabs can be applied to the current table document, but not to the template:
• Weight
• Hide
This is because the settings refer to a specific variable or variables that may not be available in another table document.
Settings in the following tabs cannot be applied to the current table document or to the template, but only to the currently selected table:
• Level
• Sort
This is because the options available refer to levels/rows/columns that may not be available in an individual table.
