How To Make A Table Repeat Based on an array variable

Post by ANOOPPM129 »

Hi Team,

Please guide me to repeat a table in open office writer 4.1.7

I have a table with 3 rows. 1st row is the header, 2nd row having an array variable, 3rd row is a static text.

HEADER
Array.N.Var
STATIC_TEXT

If the array variable having 2 values the whole table should repeat 2 times with values.

Thanks

Install LibreOffice, latest version 6.4.

Open your document.
Copy the table and paste elsewhere.

If you have any problems duplicating a table, you can simply copy the table with any version of OpenOffice and LibreOffice. I just wanted to mention that the LibreOffice added some improvements to its latest version which makes copy&paste operations more predictable and flexible. Since I hardly use Writer, I did not have the opportunity to find out what these improvements are exactly. May be it is related to what you try to do with some array variable in some (macro?) language.
