Strange line appears that I cannot delete?
It appears between two tables, as below, and find when I cut and paste the tables the line does not move with them so would seem not to be part of the table? Any advice on what may be causing this would be appreciated.

It might be a shape, but it's hard to tell from your screen shot. Could
you provide an example in *Word* format instead?

Click near it and select the 'no border' option from the paragraph part of the home ribbon. It should go away |

Thanks Stefan.
Incidentally, sometimes I can wipe it out by using white as a background colour. One of them might be a shape as when I click a border appears around it and inside I am able to edit. But not in a couple of other incidences? Tends to happens when I send out a document asking colleagues to complete bits of it, with lots of tables, and something happens when it is not in my hands! I've stripped out the text and got an example ready and tried to upload the attachment (manage attachment section) but I'm told the .doc is not a valid file type? Can you please advise how I best go uploading this word file? Many thanks Colin Quote:

Thanks Jay but only found something like this option in page background of page layout but no joy I'm afraid!

I note that it usually disappears when I hit the background shading button in paragraph ribbon. Still doesn't explain why it appears in the first place though?

Now a white vertical line has appeared right down the document - can't think what I am doing to be causing it? I can't attach the document as there is some sensitive info in there and I struggle to get rid of all the version history incl. authors? |
