Embedded tables disappearing underlines
Hi everyone,
We have word documents with embedded excel tables that have underlines in them. Some of these documents were originally created with office 2000 and we also have documents created with office 2003. We still use some of the same documents but we change some of the numbers in the tables. We have been using office 2003 for a while now (3 years now) with no issues BUT it seems since I pushed SP3 (not 100% sure) we are having issues with the underlines in the embedded tables. You look at the embedded table and you can see the underlines, you do a print preview and the underlines are there BUT when you print the document some of those lines are gone, you print it again and some lines that were not there before now print but other disappear. Its like there is a ghost in there. I tried printing to a different printer but the problem is still there. We create a new word document and make a table with underlines hit print same issue. Not all of them do it though, some of them print just fine. Does anyone have any idea of what is going on or should I call ghostbusters? |

Embedded tables disappearing underlines
I think that Rygar has a good point. Our entire company is experiencing the
same problem. It is possible that it relates to Office SP3. I found and older notebook computer in our office that has not been turned on since last fall and therfore not updated. I used that computer to see if the problem would occur. I printed an embedded table in a Word doc that was saved on a machine with SP3. Some underlines were missing. Then double clicked the table, to edit, but made no changes. Saved the doc, and printed the same embedded table. The lines were there as they should be. I then re-opened the doc from the machine with SP3 and the table printed fine. But if I double click the table it becomes a problem again. I hope this problem is fixed soon. We should not have installed SP3. "Rygar" wrote: Hi everyone, We have word documents with embedded excel tables that have underlines in them.
