Unfortunately the text is much greater than one page - it goes across three
pages, so when I don't allow text to break across pages, only the first third
of the text appears and the rest becomes hidden text that will not print.
It's a perplexing problem. I'm fairly good with word and I don't know why
this border keeps appearing at the bottom of each page that is still within
the single cell. It shouldn't have a border until the end of the cell, but
for some reason it keeps appearing at the bottom of the page (in the middle
of the cell). At one point it was doing it at the top of each page for that
cell, but I managed to turn that off.

If you DON'T allow text to break across pages, you will have a bottom border
after your last row. The downside of this is that you may have considerable
white space if the cells don't exactly fill the page. Also, what you may be
seeing at the bottom of your page is not a user-assigned border, but the
gridlines that appear in tables by default. To turn off the gridlines, use
the Table menu; the last entry is Show (or Hide) Gridlines.

I've got a simple table with two columns (A&B), two rows (1&2) . The
first
cells - A1 & B1 are less than one page. However, A2 has text that extends
over two pages. I only want lines to show at the bottom border of A1 & A2
and on the right border, but lines keep appearing in the middel of the
cell
at the end of each page as well as at the end of the cell. I've tried all
sorts of configurations but it appears there is a default somewhere that
insists cell borders go at the end of the page for each column as well as
at
the end of the cell. I turn off all borders. Then click for borders only
on
the right side of A1 and A2, and at the bottom of A1 and A2. But lines
keep
appearing midway through A2 as it extends more than one page. Any idea
how
to cut that out? I've selected allow text to break across pages, not that
it
has anything to do with this.
