RE: Crossing out a table cell
Thank you everyone for your help. I'll try that right now. Yours, Mathieu.

RE: Crossing out a table cell
Hi Mathieu, If you need your diagonal line to appear in more table cells and don't want to copy/paste the anchored frame every time: Copy the frame including the line and paste it to the Reference pages. Upon paste, FM displays a dialog window. Enter a descriptive name for your new reference frame. Create a new (or modify a) format in the Paragraph editor. In the formats' Advanced tab, select your reference frame from the Frame below/above Pgf dropdown field. Assign this para format to table cells that need to be crossed out. This method wont't work if you want the crossed out cells to contain text too.

Re: Crossing out a table cell
If you want it to be editable, you can use two tags, one set flush left and the other on the lower, second line, set flush right. If you don't need it to be (easily) editable, set it up as a graphic and import the graphic.

Then, put an anchored frame in the cell, set it to Outside Column, drag the frame so that it's a tad larger then the cell, then draw a diagonal line inside the frame. If the size of the cell changes, you'll need to adjust the line, but at least it will go with the flow, as it were. Diagonal cell lines are something InDesign does with aplomb.
