No, because table styles don't apply to the table content, which will still be in the Normal Style, for example. Table Styles only apply to the table's shading/borders, etc.

Would be great if there were a solution without VBA, but ...
This can only be done with VBA.

I meant, text styles such as tableHead, table Cell, tableCaption applied to the content of the table. Sorry for the terminology glitch!
