A simple code like this:

FRVTable.BestWidth := 0;

(Parent as TRichHtml).Format;

must work, if FRVTable is not inside any other table.

Otherwise you need to call table.Changed for table containing this table,

table containing that table, and so on.

The "official" (and the most efficient) method of modifying properties of

tables is below:

var ItemNo, Data: Integer

// let's rve is an editor containing table (directly, i.e. if the table is

inside a cell, this is must be a cell editor).

// ItemNo must be an index of table in this editor; if it is not known, you

can get it:

// ItemNo := rve.GetItemNo(table);

rve.BeginItemModify(ItemNo, Data);

table.BestWidth := 0;

rve.EndItemModify(ItemNo, Data);

rve.Change;

I.e. absolutely the same scheme as in demo of editor for operations on

tables.
