Why, when a table is brought in from a data link then the link is detached will the table not scale? I mean the table will scale but the text inside does not!. However if I create a table and enter data manually it will scale. Any ideas anyone.
Thanks
 
You have to give us more information such as what program was used to create the table from your link?
If ACAD was used to create that linked table, is it text in that table Xref'ed?
The more information we get, the chance for an answer is better.
 
The table was created from a spread sheet in Excel.I am using AutoCAD 2009. All the legends in our drawings were done using ole excell files and I have been converting them to AutoCAD tables. It is not a major issue as they can be scaled in the viewport but it is annoying.Thanks
