31 Tables Use OLE for tables if: The entire table represents a single requirement The table does not contain requirements, and the data can be easily displayed in an OLE object Use DOORS tables if: Each cell must be tracked separately (as individual objects) The table provides information that can be best displayed in DOORS table format Use Custom DXL Attribute to display multiple attribute values in a cell 31 Copyright IBM Corporation 2010
