MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / September 2004How do I change column widths within idividual tables on the same.
I'm using xl 2000. I want to place several tables on the same worksheet. Is it possible to change column widths of a table without affecting the column width of the other tables. Hi! If the tables are one on top of the other, no. Both column width and row height are constant for the entire column or row. A possible workaround would be to merge cells but that has disadvantages.

Copy one of your tables using normal Edit / Copy, then pick where you want to put it on your new sheet, hold down SHIFT and then click on the EDIT menu where you will now see an option of PASTE PICTURE LINK. Hit that and you can then resize the image if you wish. Repeat for your other tables, and you will then see that as data changes in the original tables it will also change in these linked 'images'. Might be an idea to remove gridlines as well, else it can look tacky. Also consider reomving gridlines from the sheets that contain your tables prior to copying them.
