Tables and pre format

[Guest]

Hi, I've been searching in the archives but see nothing on changing the
format of the table properties in FP2002. I use a theme and I understand
that the theme rules the color of my table when I create it. I know I can
change the border and the cell borders individually after I create a table
but I want to change it within the theme so that any table I make from this
point forward will be a different color and padding measurements and so on.
I tried format>theme>modify active graphics, colors and text but do not see
where the table color can be set. Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks but I can't get that to take. I changed the table to blue border,
padding etc and clicked the "set as default for all new tables" button. It
makes a table with a blue border (although the cells are still the old color,
in this case yellow, which is a separate issue). However if I go to make a
new table the table color reverts to the original (all yellow and no blue
border). It's almost as if FP doesn't care that I've commanded it to be the
default border color of the table. I tried it several times in both of the
ways you suggested.

You must save the modified theme under a new name, remove the current theme, then apply the newly
modified theme.

If I make a new theme and remove the old will it change all of my tables to
the new theme or will it just make new tables from that point forward?
Thanks

Sorry, after posting I realized by research that I can change the theme on
one page or 'all ' pages under format>theme.
I think I have it now, thanks.

the new theme or will it just make new tables from that point forward?
