As Stefan has implied, when you format a single cell, you get only the
options for Top, Bottom, Left, and Right. If you select multiple cells, then
you can also format the Vertical/Horizontal Inside borders, which will then
apply when you select multiple cells and press F4.

Thanks, Stefan, using the F4 key certainly works to paste a cell format to
another cell. Is there a way to paste to multiple cells?
I was able to paste the same border lines to individual cells selected,
however, when I tried to paste this format (left, bottom, right lines) to
multiple cells the line format appeared on the 1st cell left side, last
cell
right side, and across the bottom of all cells.
Merci,
jamowa

Select the cell that has the desired formatting. Open the Borders and
Shading dialog box and click OK (to confirm the settings). Then you
should
be able to select other cells and press F4 to repeat the settings of the
dialog box.

I have many cells in a Word table that I want to have the same
borders/lines
format. Is it possible to copy the formatting of one cell to multiple
cells?
Like in Excel?
Thanks
