How do you remove lines in a table?
Catherine,
The answer depends upon whether you want to remove actual borders (lines) which typically appear as solid lines or gridlines, which typically appear as gray lines, sometimes dotted. Here's a link to a great tutorial on working with Tables in Word: http://office.microsoft.com/training...0619581 71033 If you want to remove gridlines, you have to do that for entire table and not just a few cells. In Word 2003, that setting can be changed on the Table menu. However, borders are cell specific, and you can select any cells you want to change and use the Borders command on either the toolbar or the Ribbon (depending upon your version of Word).

How do you remove lines in a table?
You can remove borders selectively using Format | Borders and Shading or the
Borders toolbar palette. Select the cell(s) from which you wish to remove a border and then click on the button (or portion of the preview) corresponding to the border in question (Bottom, Top, etc.). If you want to remove the actual division between cells, select the cells, right-click, and choose Merge Cells. -- Suzanne S.
