Sample documented with tables - printed by our word processing engine

With WPTools 5 you can place multiple paragraphs and even other tables inside a table cell. The formatting procedure is capable enough to create page breaks within a table row, even if this row contain another table. Of course this is a format option which can be also switched off.

The developer sees a table as nested paragraph objects. It is possible to access each cell using the Rows[] and Cols[] arrays.

It is also possible to repeat certain rows after a page break to create header areas.

New: Automatic header and footer rows

The header and footer rows are repeated at page breaks. Optionally with WPReporter: Special fields can display updated information, for example the sum of all elements with a give name on the currtent page.
