Question on flipping objects in indesign

[Optimusdinkus2]

Is there any way lets say to flip a table that you have made to the other side, BUT without it also inverting all of the text inside? Basically a table was made on the wrong side of the spread for a business reply mail invitation and needs to be flipped, but every time I do a reflect it does the text as well >(

Well you're just flipping the container, which holds the table, so everything inside does flip. There is no way to flip a table, or transpose the cells. All you can do is redo the table, with a copy and paste job.

Yes andrew. That is possible. But I feel that it would make a bit of mess for future uses. I think it's better to redo the tables and have them correct.
