Has anyone experienced a formatting issue with tables in Designer X6 and/or has Corel acknowledged that there may be an issue? The specific issue I have noticed is that you cannot select individual cells and apply color from the palette. This functionality existed in all versions before X6 and the help file says you can do this. However, what happens is that when you select a cell or group of cells and pick a color the entire background of the table takes on the selected color. I have X5 files that use this functionality and a fix would be appreciated.

But you can do this easily in x6 (well, not too easily)

Try hovering your cursor near the edge of the table and you should see a small arrow appear, now click, the Row/column in now selected
Thanks again Mike - at this point I am not looking for a work-around (I have one, that is, using X5 for that particular function) - I am looking for Corel to issue a service pack to correct the issue. Mind you this is not a drop dead issue - I am just pointing it out in hopes that it will be addressed one of these days.
The issue has been confirmed by Corel and has been escalated for review.
Thank you, Sharon
thanks Sharon - much appreciated.
