turn a table to it's mirror image

[nikanore1]

Hi ! I need to flip a table in word so it will be the mirror image of it
(the left row will be on the right and so on)
It's very urgent. Thank you

If it's a simple table with a manageable number of columns, you can just drag
the columns into the position you want.

Split the table to separate the columns from any rows that span more than
one column (i.e. the title row, if any, and footnote row, if any).

Select the entire column by holding Alt and clicking anywhere in a column.

Drag the column to its new position. (It looks like the insertion point is
in front of the first character in the first row of the column you're
inserting it to the left of.)

I found the answer few minutes after I posted the answer. I marked the whole
table and then right clicked. There is - table properties and one of the
options is -Turn the table left to right.
Thanks anyway.

You must have a version later than Word 2000, as I have not got that option.

I've never seen anything like that in Word 2003, either.

Or Word 2007?

This option is on Table Properties, Table.
Between the Text Wrapping Options and the Border&Shading and Options Buttons.
I am using Word 2003 (SP2) Standard Edition running on Windows 2000 SP4.

I checked with a collegue who is using 2003 on XP and he does not have this
option? Does anyone know of the check box somewhere that activates this
option? What other options are we missing?

Thanks

Perhaps the option is available only if you have Right-to-Left support
installed?

Maybe this answers my previous query concerning the inclusion of Asian texts
in the Font dialog box.

Do you know where the install option is, when using the install disk? Is it
possible to uninstall this option, without having the reinstall everything?

Many thanks
DeanH

The MSKB article "How to enable right-to-left language support for Word 2003
and Word 2002 on computers that are running on Windows Server 2003, on
Windows XP, or on Windows 2000" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=311015
tells how to enable support; you could reverse the instructions to disable
it.

Note, however, that changing things in the installed version of Word is not
really a question of doing an uninstall/reinstall, just a "Change" install
(Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Microsoft Office | Change | Add or
Remove Components).

Many thanks Suzanne.
I shall have a look and consider the pros and cons of any further action.
As always, spot-on.
