Format Cells Of a Word Table

Format cells of a Word table.

WrdFormatCells(wtab, rstart, rend, col = NULL, bg = NULL,
               font = NULL, border = NULL, align = NULL)

Arguments

wtab

a handle to the word table as returned i.g. by WrdTable

rstart

the left/upper cell of the cell range

rend

the right/lower cell of the cell range

col

the foreground colour

bg

the background colour

font

the font to be used to the output. This should be defined as a list containing fontname, fontsize, bold and italic flags:
list(name="Arial", size=10, bold=FALSE, italic=TRUE, color=wdConst$wdColorBlack).

border

the border of the cell range, defined as a list containing arguments for border, linestyle, linewidth and color. border is a vector containing the parts of the border defined by the Word constants wdConst$wdBorder..., being $wdBorderBottom, $wdBorderLeft, $wdBorderTop, $wdBorderRight, $wdBorderHorizontal, $wdBorderVertical, $wdBorderDiagonalUp, $wdBorderDiagonalDown. linestyle, linewidth and color will be recycled to the required dimension.

align

a character out of "l", "c", "r" setting the horizontal alignment of the cell range.

Cell range selecting might be complicated. This function makes it easy.

Value
