[comp.text] modifying the line spacing in a float

dorab@hilo.cs.ucla.edu (12/23/89)

i need to double-space (i know, i dont like it either but i need
this for my dissertation) a document, but i would like to
single-space the floats (figures/tables). the double spacing is done
via modifying \baselinestretch in the preamble. i tried the obvious ...

	\begin{table}
	\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1}\normalsize
		.... some stuff here .....
	\par\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{2}\normalsize
	\end{table}

but that doesn't work. any ideas ?

please email me and i will summarize.

thanks
