Issue with Coloring Tables

Post by nfarnoud »

Hi All,
I have a document with a few tables, one of which requires colored rows. But when I use \usepackage{colortbl} in preamble to enable coloring rows, the other tables that have variable column width (p{width}) are not shown properly (the tables with p{width} go outside the margin). The margin problem seems to be resolved by eliminating '\usepackage{colortbl}' from preamble. But then I can not have colored rows!
Can somebody help me out to resolve this issue please?

Many Thanks
nfarnoud

Post an example LaTeX document. There are a lot of low-level table things that could be going on.
