creating a table with row headings instead of column headings

[Ben Hechter]

Thanks, Wim, Fred and Ann.

This was mainly about being able to create a template table type with column 1 automatically shaded for row headings (without having to use custom shading overrides). 

Believe that I now have a some alternatives for doing this.

Cheers,

Ben

The only functional difference between a heading row and a body row

is that heading rows are repeated on any subsequent pages that the 

table extends onto. There is no corresponding need for row headings

to repeat, so there is no mechanism for marking a heading column

as being any differerent than a body column. Yes, the formatting 

wants to be different, but that's just a matter of applying an 

appropriate paragraph tag.
