      Apologies, but I new to the world of Tables and, as an exercise only, I am trying to create following:

      I have a to create a table 21 columns wide (they're very narrow) and nine rows deep

      I want theTOP ROW ONLY to have an alternating fill of 50% black; the first column being white then 50%; then white and so on.

      Producing the alternating fill is (obviously) very easy, but I am struggling to limit it to the top row only.

      Can anyone advise on the best approach

      I think you could probably do thins by using a combination of cell styles and table styles.

      If you set up a couple of cell styles, using your alternate fill for one and not for the other, then you can setup a table style which includes your alternate filled cell style as header rows and and the non-alternate filled cells for the body rows.
