Hi.
I'm using matlab to create a report which includes several figures, texts and tables. The point is, when I copy a table it is automatically aligned to the left, although the paragraph format is "center". I've tried to select the table and to align again the paragraph using this:
ActXWord.Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = 'wdAlignParagraphCenter';
But it doesn't work (it centers the content of the table, not the table). could anyone help me? Thanks in advance :D

Thank you Lain, but it doesn't work. this is the error I get:
ActXWord.Selection.Alignment = 'wdCenter'; ??? No public field Alignment exists for class Interface.Microsoft_Word_11.0_Object_Library.Selection.
Is there any way to add the needed library ? anyone knows which is it?

Try this:
table = document.Tables.Add(selection.Range,numRows,numCols); % insert a table
table.Rows.Alignment = 'wdAlignRowCenter'; % center the table
