Inspite of all its qualities, Datamerge is unable to produce true tables.
But what if you want to use datamerging and yet get a true Indesign table ?
Here is a script that may be helpful !
Use
Open an Indesign document and create your table.
Load your datamerge source file in the the datamerge panel.
Tag cells as you want.
Select the row to duplicate.
Run the script. You get a fully editable Indesign Table !
Download
Note that this script is no longer supported and may not work with the latest versions of inDesign.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to put this informative article together.
I once again find myself spending a lot of time both
reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still worthwhile!

It's a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more
pleasant for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a designer to create your theme?
Fantastic work!

But there is an error message using the actual version of InDesign CC.
Without pictures it works fine, but inserting images and starting the script I get this message:
ReferenceError: Object is invalid 102
Is it about the script or am I doing something wrong?
I sent your comment to Loic. I hope he can answer you.
Sorry to bear the bad news but I no longer support this script. Although it was fun to design, I can only recommend using professional solutions such as EasyCatalog or DesignMerge plugins regarding to one's needs.

Non chez moi, ça fonctionne.
Je viens de faire l'update vers Indesign CC 2015, et malheureusement le script ne semble plus fonctionner.
Est-ce un bug de mon côté ou une constante pour toutes les version CC2015 ?
Malheureusement , suite à sa réponse, il est très occupé et n'a que peu voire pas de temps pour intervenir… J'en suis navré.
Parfait. Merci.
L'absence de "génération" de blocs vides (sur demande) serait très pratique (dans mon cas).
J'ai averti Loic de vos commentaires, j'espère qu'il ne tardera pas à passer vous renseigner…
Exactly as explained in the tuto.
Except the fact i "save as" my fil in a *.txt format (tabulation).
And i've downloaded the file less than 3month ago.
Can you explain how? I am also using CS6 and this stopped working about 3 months ago.
Hello, i make this running perfectly on CC2014, but i use a .txt file (excel save as tabulation *.txt)
I tried to get this script running with CS6 and CC2015 – without of luck.
Is there any chance for an update?
Je souhaiterais néanmoins savoir si il est possible de l'éditer (ou de moins de tenter de le faire
Car je suis embêté par le fait qu'il subsiste des blocs vides lorsqu'il n'y a pas d'images à importer dans certaines lignes.
Il existe l'option "supprimer les blocs de texte vide", mais cela ne fonctionne pas pour les images.
Je pense que le format .jsxbin est prévu pr ne pas être éditable.
Merci. Bien à vous.
Et d'ores et déjà bonne année 2016.
I tried transferring the file to a utf-8 encoded but it did not let me choose the file format it gave me errrors

Have you come across this?
Hi no, you can only select one row. That's a limited script. For complex tables, you should definitively consider a more robust tool like EasyCatalog. Come to ozalto.com for a further discussion of this plugin if needed.

This script may fix my formatting isseu, so thanks. Great work.
Just one thing though, is it possible to select two rows and perform the same. I have a unique 'heading' for each record that I would like to place above each one.
Thanks
I too am having the same issue (CS6). Whenever I run the script, another window in InDesign opens with a tiny text box in the corner. When you expand the box and the table inside, it just has the merge fields in there.
Has anyone found a solution to this issue? Thanks.
This script is working fine with my document. but the problem is my data is in different format for eg. name then in next line dept. and i want to repeat all of it. and this script only allows me to repeat only one at a time. what shal i do?
Feel free to reach me through my website ( contact ) and send me your elements. I will investigate.
No information is put into the table.
I use Indesign CS6
Can you explain what to do
Yeah I am afraid CS4 is out of range.
Error: object does not support the property or method 'LINK INACCESSIBLE' 21
AM i selecting something wrong, or do I just have too old a version of ID?
Get in touch through my website : loicaigon.com
And let's have a look at your issue.
Loic
"Unable to retrieve the CSV file"
Any idea what the problem could be?
I want to know is this script compatible with Indesign CS3, bcoz Iam getting error message on execution.
Thanks
I updated the script. It's completely rewritten for better performances. Let me know if it fixes the issue ;)
