Cross-reference markers present in the table are deleted when the table is 
sorted (so cross-references pointing to paragraphs which reside in a table 
become unresolved after sorting) -- still present in FM7.2.

The custom cell itself can be copied and pasted. Or the "Show Current 
Settings" function (Custom Ruling and Shading dialog box) may be used to 
determine what the properties are.
