Applying TableStyle to an XML-table

[nesplb]

Hi!

I'm using XML Rules in Indesign CS3 to find every table element in an xml file in Indesign. (The tables are imported as CALS and looks just like normal Indesign tables in the layout) I find the table element but when I try to attach a TableStyle "table" nothing happens. Does anyone know what im doing wrong? I know that I find the tables because the text "TEST" is inserted after each table.
here's my code:

Public Property Get name()
name = "ProcessDevice"
End Property
'XPath
Public Property Get xpath()
xpath = "//Table"
End Property
Public Function apply(myXMLElement, myRuleProcessor)
With myXMLElement
.InsertTextAsContent "TEST",InDesign.idXMLElementPosition.idAfterElement
.ApplyParagraphStyle ("table")
End With
apply = False
End Function

In advance thanks!

Sorry!

I made an error:

The line
.ApplyParagraphStyle("table")
should ofcourse be:
.ApplyTableStyle ("table")

-And it still dont work....

I found the solution!

With myXMLElement
.Tables(1).AppliedTableStyle = "table"
End With

This because it's not the xml element it self that shall have the table style, but the table of the XML-element Table.
