Default Two related questions concerning newsletter format

Word has only one type of column for the rest it uses tables.
You can insert pictures in the columns of a table (clue: - set the table
column width to fixed or it will expand to accommodate the picture), but
pictures that span columns are rather more complicated requiring the use of
extra merged columns and rows. For such a layout Publisher would be a whole
lot simpler.

That was it. The border (what I called a graphic line) is gone. Thanks!
Now, I'll have to try the borderless table, as you suggested.
I do need to be able to insert photos with borders around them,
though. Does Word only have the one type of columns, with columns
always flowing across the page and balanced?

Thanks for the help.
