Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ GNUMERIC Tables: Issues

[sw3quant]

Hello.

I am new to Latex. I am using MikTex 2.8, WinEdt 6, JABREF 2.6 and Windows Vista. I am creating PDFs, working from a template:
http://www-h.eng.cam.ac.uk/help/tpl/tex ... PSnPDF.zip

I have a number of very large tables of data, so I am using GNUMERIC to save the tables as tex files and then doing "\input{Chapter1/Chapter1Tables/Table1A.tex}".
This works well and I can see my tables in the compiled PDF.

In my main tex file I write "\listoftables". I would like this to do what "\listoffigures" does:
1. Place a name next to each Table, like "Table 1A"
2. Compile a list of these tables under the heading "list of tables" at the start of these and link to each table

At the moment, List of tables appears at the front of the thesis but without any mention of the inserted tex file.

I am guessing somehow I need to tell Latex that the tex file I have inserted is actually a table

Many thanks

A table is a float like a figure so you need to have a \begin{table}..\end{table} somewhere for it to appear in the \listoftables. What does Table1A.tex contain, only a tabular environment?

You could try

Code: Select all

\begin{table}[thb]
\input{Chapter1/Chapter1Tables/Table1A.tex}
\end{table}

Instead of always introducing your problems with a link to that ZIP archive you should better prepare a proper minimal working example (MWE) that reproduces a problem clearly.
