Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Border missing from Table

[upani1982]

Hi All,

I am trying to construct a table with border. But my border is missing for the first column and also the top row are looking disjointed. The code follows:

Code: Select all

Please help me. This is beyond my cup of tea.

Hi Upananda,

the border is missing because you use \multicolumn{1}{c} which means just centered formatting without border. You could change it to

Code: Select all

\multicolumn{1}{|c}{...}

I wonder why you don't simply use c in the header and omit \multicolumn for single cells then.

Regarding the vertical lines: booktabs strongly recommends to avoid vertical lines, and I agree. They make reading harder. Just have a look at good tables in good books, they often use horizontal lines but no vertical lines, supporting reading line by line. That's a contrast to Excel-made tables which are often made as grids.

If you need vertical lines and don't want the gaps, don't use booktabs' rule commands but take \hline. Such as

Code: Select all

\begin{tabular}{|c|r|r|r|r|r|}
  \addlinespace
  \hline
  Exchange Name & 2006  & 2007  & 2008  & 2009  & 2010 \\
  \hline
  \multirow{2}[0]{*}{BCEXL} & 0.28  & 0.57  & 0.20  & 0.55  & 0.55 \\
    & (0.01) & (0.01) & (0.00) & (0.01) & (0.01) \\
  \hline
  \multirow{2}[0]{*}{BCEXM} & 0.03  & 0.02  & 0.07  & 0.06  & 0.55 \\
    & (0.00) & (0.00) & (0.00) & (0.00) & (0.01) \\
  ...

If you make it this way and need more spacing, this could be done.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I have changed my table accordingly. Is there any book authored by you. I would like to order an copy if it is available in the market.
Is that book for a novice like me.

With sincere regards,
Upananda

Hi Upananda,

yes, I've written a LaTeX book for novices: LaTeX Beginner's Guide

The link goes to the website of the publisher Packt. There you can find a sample chapter for download. This chapter is specifically about tables, such as your question. It starts with simple tables and goes to complex ones like this:

Table example

The first chapters are easier of course, this is chapter 5, starting at page 121. If you like the sample chapter, perhaps you like the book. You also find it on Amazon of course, for example on this website theres a picture of the book with a link to Amazon.

Hello Sir,

Thanks a lot for your information. I am fortunate to get all these information from such a experienced person like you.

I will order the book and will read the whole book.

With sincere regards,
