<?tbcpat>
Description
Allows you to pass attributes to the reference defined by <?tbcpref>. These attributes can then modify the behavior of your reference, by inheriting alternative properties for the table etc. This is particularly useful if your markup defines text properties for the table.
This command can also be specified as <?tbcellattrib>.
Example 410. Pass text and cell attributes to a body style
As an example, a table contains the markup <TABLE HEIGHT="8pt" TEXTCOLOR="RED">. If you specified <?tbcpref="body"> and <?tbcpat HEIGHT="8pt" TEXTCOLOR="RED">, the body style can now be written to handle the attributes it will inherit, i.e. each new table cell will now start with <body HEIGHT="8pt" TEXTCOLOR="RED">.
