Alternate Row formatting in WORD Table

[terry]

I have an application where I import linked data from a database in
tabular form.

The desired presenttion when imported into WORD is that odd rows re one
text style and even rows are another (Ie row 1 = heading, row 2 = body
text)

As I don't know how many rows will be generated WOrd needs to know to
use alternate row formats.

I seem to recall getting WORD to do this by accident in the past
(Though I may have been dreaming!).

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for any help,

Terry.
