[Framers] Runaround properties for tables in FrameMaker?

You can't do that using table properties. You could if you created a text
frame and inserted the table inside the frame. If you have standard table
configurations that take up the same space on the page, you could probably
save a text frame somewhere, copy and paste it in, then insert the table.
Or Silicon Prairie has the Autotext plugin which would let you set it up in
a document and insert as needed, frame and table at the same time.

Why are you trying to do this, btw? Is it because your tables aren't as
wide as the page so you want to take advantage of the blank space?
