Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Copy of most tables in the appendix

[Batox]

For reference purposes I want to copy nearly all tables in my document together into an appendix. How can I achieve that automagically?

One of my tables currently looks like:

Code: Select all

\begin {center}
\rowcolors{1}{white}{gray!20}
\begin{tabular}{|ll|}
	\hline
	\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{} \\
	\rowcolor{white} \multicolumn{2}{|c|}{Table of Stuff} \\
	\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{} \\
	\hline
	1 & first stuff \\
	\hline
	2 & second \\
	\hline
	3 & and so on \\
	\hline
\end{tabular}
\end {center}

Now in the appendix I'd like to write

Code: Select all

\appendix
\chapter{Tables Reference}
... ? (one line which effectively copies the above table, 
       or maybe even all tables which are marked or defined
       in a special way)

Hi and welcome, put each table in an external tex file and input the files once in the document and a second time in the appendix.

Thanks for the quick reply! I see - should have thought of that myself

As you probably guessed I'm only starting with LaTeX, but have a background as C++ developer. I was hoping for some smart macro/code functionality, because putting the tables in extra files results in a lot of files, so far I have only one (although I'm not sure wether that's really good in the long term).
