Did you look to see if they show up in a print? If so, select the table,

Hi Tony, I was afraid I was talking too much and my msg. would not be
"clear". The lines are not a problem for me BUT when I email my resume to
someone and these lines are showing up and are not suppose to, I do not
want
that. They have never shown up before whenever I emailed, faxed or
printed
the document. I've used this resume format for over 3 years and just
recently had gotten laid off and am needing it again.

As I said in my first post, the lines are not a problem when I am working
with the document but they should NOT be visible when I am emailing the
document to someone else. Something is wrong is what I am saying. Can
you
help me rid the document of them? As I said also, they came from the
template that I used to create the resume using Word 2000 and again, they
ARE
NOT suppose to show up in print, email or faxing. (but for some reason,
now
they are?????). I just want the document to be visible - NOT THE TABLE
LINES
TOO.

Thanks again for any info. Joy

What you are seeing are called Table Gridlines. They do not print but
whether or not they are visible is a user setting so anybody with an
electronic copy of the document can choose to see them (or not) - it is
beyond your control, and was that way before even if you did not realise
it.

If you want lines not to be visible, one way is to add borders and colour
them white but remember that anybody with an electronic copy can change
anything in it. Why do you think the fact that you use tables for
formatting
should be a problem?

Hi everyone, I previously created my resume using a template in Word
2000
and I am currently using it to send out for employment but now I am
using
Word 2003 (trial version downloaded from Microsoft.com). My problem is
this:
I assume that when I used the template to create my resume that it
already
contained tables or borders or whatever to use to make my resume look
like
it
was in an "outline" format. There were particular places for headings,
titles, paragraphs, etc. These "lines" should never be visible when
viewing
the resume using "print preview", "print", "email" or "fax". But the
lines
are now showing up when I email my resume and it is a disaster for
me...

I cannot figure out what is happening and I have used every command
available for tables and borders to rid this document of these template
lines, but the are still showing up in email. (i am not sure about
faxing
or
actually printing because I haven't faxed the resume to anyone nor do I
have
a printer connected at this time). But they still do not show up in
"print
preview", just the way they should nto show up.

Can anyone figure out what I am talking about here? I hope this made
sense
to someone. I am DESPERATE and cannot create another resume. I love
this
one and no longer have Word 2000 on my system. (i had to reformat my
hard
drive and did not have the Code to reinstall my Word 2000 CD so I had
to
download a trial version because I could not find a way to get a new
code
to
install 2000 with).

ANYONE AT ALL, CAN U HELP ME PLEASE.

I'd be happy to send u a copy of my resume so you can see what I am
talking
about.

Thanks ahead of time - have a blessed day everyone

Joy
