Change Table Properties Using Lisp Routine

[CADdancer]

Hi AUGI Members,

Is there a way to change the Cell Height, Vertical Cell Margin, Horizontal Cell Margin, & Cell Style using a lisp routine....?? When I Copy / Paste an Excel sheet into an AutoCAD Table using the Paste Special option the resulting table needs to be modified to conform to our standards even though I have a Table Style defined before I perform the Paste Special operation.

Any help would be appreciated....!!

Vince

Yes. It is possible to modify AutoCAD Tables using AutoLISP. You'll probably need to work through each individual cell. You can review the methods and properties available for table objects.

If PASTESPECMODE is set to 1, then set it to 0. Note that AutoCAD tables don't have ALL the formatting options that Excel does, so it may not look exactly like your Excel table.
