The appearance of tables in the content frame can be customized to meet the user's individual requirements or to suit the user's personal preferences. The width of the columns in a table can be adjusted. The position of the columns within a table can be changed. Where appropriate, the contents of tables can displayed in chart or graph form. The contents of all SMH tables can also be sorted alphabetically/ reverse alphabetically (text) or in ascending/ descending order (numbers).
