Got you! It's one of the undocumented features: \stelkleurenin[status=start] \setupcolors[state=start] \starttabel[||] \starttable[||] \HC[groen][4] \HC[green][4] \VC[rood] test \VC[blauw][8] \SR \VC[red] test \VC[blue] \SR \HC[groen] \HC[green] \stoptabel \stoptable \end Color in cells is not that hard. I suggest that you look in core-tab for some examples. Another automatic feature is: \AR (automatic row instead of \SR \FR \MR \LR) Wanna get crazy: turn on tracing: \tracetabletrue Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | mail: pragma@wxs.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
