Since I am only interested in generating tables in word I have no need for
something elaborate enough to generate everything.

So yes Dan what I did is I started to look at table sin Excel and copy
pasting to Word. Finally I created a sample of the simplest table we need to
generate and then saved as HTML from the Word document. That is best
solution I could find for now.

I am fooling around manipulating the HTML and so far it seems to be doing
well. The objective is to use templates and tags then run Process 4D Tags
and build the tables that way.

I was able to accurately create tables, rows and columns no problem. I can
manipulate certain formatting parameters etc.

The only thing right now is that I assign a Table width as well as column
widths and they are not conforming to that setting. For instance I have 4
columns, first is 300 and the next 3 are 75. However the 2nd to last seems
to be 150. Too tired tonight to go on but it should not be impossible to get
this to work.

So in conclusion I think using snippets of Word's HTML is the way to go in
my case. At least it would seem so up to now.
