Solved possible to use joomla editor instead of component one?

I desperately need to be able to put tables into replies in my forum

another thread said that was not possible with kuenena, but it is with the default Joomla editor. Is there any way to load the default Joomla editor instead of the built in one from the forum?
 

I'm sorry, but that's not possible.

I don't know if this will work for you, but here is an "out of the box" idea.
1. Create your tables in Joomla by using the Add New Article function and JCE Editor Pro.
2. Then switch to Source Code in the Joomla Editor and copy code.
3. Now go to your Kunena Forum, switch the "new editor" to Source mode and Paste code from Joomla editor.
4. Press Source again to return to normal edit mode.

When you are finished, delete the Joomla article code.

A further possibility would be an unpublished Joomla article which contain the table. If you enter in the Kunena message this code (the number must be the article ID) the article will be displayed in the message.

 thanks for the suggestion, a lengthy workaround, but it almost works.however, when I paste the table code into the source area in kunena, then unclick the source to show the styling it is just showing the code - not converting the code to tables. ( see screenshots)what is the point of the code dbutton if the htrml is being stripped out in the editor?is there a setting I missed thsat would allow for code in the editor?

inserting the article almost works - but I need to be able to put content into the tables of the cells - when I insert this way it is not editble
