Is there an easier way to do this than manually building the table using the buttone above?

I tried cutting and pasting all sorts of formats, and got nowhere. Building a table for the NAB Cup tipping comp was painful.
 
Yeah it can be painful and very time consuming. I don't know any other way unfortunately. I hope someone else can help. I was sent a pm recently with a table that indicated it can be done differently so I'll see if I can find out how it was done.
 
I think it's like this

Code:
[table] 
[tr] [td]1.1[/td] [td]1.2[/td][td]1.3[/td]
[/tr]
[tr] [td]2.1[/td] [td]2.2[/td][td]2.3[/td]
[/tr]
[tr] [td]3.1[/td] [td]3.2[/td][td]3.3[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

1.11.21.3
2.12.22.3
3.13.23.3


If you have the Table in HTML format, you can use this site to convert it. http://www.seabreezecomputers.com/html2bbcode/
 
What I usually do is, space out the table in a monotype font in Notepad, cut & paste into PRE, then highlight the table and change the font to Courier or Courier New.
