Re: Tables

[Kent Kostuk]

When cutting and pasting from gnumeric, I would create a table in LyX 
that was the exact dimensions (i.e. same number of rows and columns) of 
what I was trying to paste and didn't seem to have any troubles.  I do 
remember that it took some patience to get a feel for how to do this, 
but I think it only took a couple of iterations.

Im finding the Lyx tables to be extreamely annoying, I
cant get them to do what I want to do and it keeps
inserting weird formatting etc.
I tried to use gnumeric and cut and paste, but that
didnt work properly, most oftern only one line of
cells would be filled. Also tried xl2latex but the
version I can find proudly proclaims that it now works
with excel 97 so a newer version is preferable.
Do people have other suggestions? ATM Im seriously
thinking that word does a better job with the tables,
Im considering exporting them from word as images or
something just so I can get the tables that I want.
