Updates the table with the characteristics of a predefined table format.
Syntax
expression. UpdateAutoFormat
expression Required. A variable that represents a 'Table' object.
Remarks
As an example of how this method functions, if you apply a table format with AutoFormat and then insert rows and columns, the table may no longer match the predefined look. UpdateAutoFormat restores the format.
Example
This example creates a table, applies a predefined format to it, adds a row, and then reapplies the predefined format.
Dim docNew As Document
Dim tableNew As Table
Set docNew = Documents.Add
Set tableNew = docNew.Tables.Add(Selection.Range, 5, 5)
With tableNew
.AutoFormat Format:=wdTableFormatColumns1
.Rows.Add BeforeRow:=tableNew.Rows(1)
End With
MsgBox "Click OK to reapply autoformatting."
tableNew.UpdateAutoFormat
This example restores the predefined format to the table that contains the insertion point.
If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) = True Then
Selection.Tables(1).UpdateAutoFormat
Else
MsgBox "The insertion point is not in a table."
End If
