Hi Karen, FYI, if this is an ongoing requirement, it could be scripted to maintain all of the paragraph formats when converting to a table. If you are interested in a script solution, please contact me offlist. Thank you.

Using FM 2019's Table > Convert to Table function, I converted existing formatted paragraphs with tabbed columns into an actual table. The conversion correctly applies table title and column header formats. But it ignores all other paragraph formats, so the entire page-long table is converted to column header format. I have to reassign the table text format to the entire table (because it covers the most content), then individually assign different formats to the cells in which they apply. This takes about five times as long as it should. There are 16 tables, so you do the math. FM's conversion approach is illogical and contrary: it applies some other format to already-formatted content without warning or explanation. Can FM be made to convert to table keeping all paragraph formats intact?
