<div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hi,</font></div><div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Just wanted to know if there is a way to apply the table properties through the "Copy Special" option for a table tag in FrameMaker. </font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Right now, I am handling a migration work where the existing content has to be transformed to a different template. For which, this option would be handy.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Because if this is feasible, then I can use the Find/Replace - "By Pasting" option and I will be able to convert all the tables in one go as opposed to applying the table tag by individually selecting each table from the document.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Please advise.</font></div><br><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Thanks & Regards</font><br>
