17.4.55 tblLook

This element specifies the components of the conditional formatting of the referenced table style (if one exists) which shall be applied to the current table. A table style can specify up to six different optional conditional formats [Example: Different formatting for first column. end example], which then can be applied or omitted from individual tables in the document.

The default setting is to apply the row and column banding formatting, but not the first row, last row, first column, or last column formatting.

[Example: Consider a table which must use the following conditional formatting properties from the referenced table style:

• First row conditional formatting
• Last row conditional formatting
• No row banding formatting
• No column banding formatting

The resulting WordprocessingML would be specified as follows:

<w:tblPr>
  <w:tblLook w:firstRow="true" w:lastRow="true" w:noHBand="true"
w:noVBand="true" />
</w:tblPr>

The tblLook element specifies which components of the table style are applied to the current table. end example]
