Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hi everyone, I previously created my resume using a template in Word 2000
and I am currently using it to send out for employment but now I am using Word 2003 (trial version downloaded from Microsoft.com). My problem is this: I assume that when I used the template to create my resume that it already contained tables or borders or whatever to use to make my resume look like it was in an "outline" format. There were particular places for headings, titles, paragraphs, etc. These "lines" should never be visible when viewing the resume using "print preview", "print", "email" or "fax". But the lines are now showing up when I email my resume and it is a disaster for me... I cannot figure out what is happening and I have used every command available for tables and borders to rid this document of these template lines, but the are still showing up in email. (i am not sure about faxing or actually printing because I haven't faxed the resume to anyone nor do I have a printer connected at this time). But they still do not show up in "print preview", just the way they should nto show up. Can anyone figure out what I am talking about here? I hope this made sense to someone. I am DESPERATE and cannot create another resume. I love this one and no longer have Word 2000 on my system. (i had to reformat my hard drive and did not have the Code to reinstall my Word 2000 CD so I had to download a trial version because I could not find a way to get a new code to install 2000 with). ANYONE AT ALL, CAN U HELP ME PLEASE. I'd be happy to send u a copy of my resume so you can see what I am talking about. Thanks ahead of time - have a blessed day everyone  Joy |

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
What you are seeing are called Table Gridlines. They do not print but
whether or not they are visible is a user setting so anybody with an electronic copy of the document can choose to see them (or not) - it is beyond your control, and was that way before even if you did not realise it. If you want lines not to be visible, one way is to add borders and colour them white but remember that anybody with an electronic copy can change anything in it. Why do you think the fact that you use tables for formatting should be a problem? -- Enjoy, Tony "uRmySunshine" wrote in message ...

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hi Tony, I was afraid I was talking too much and my msg. would not be
"clear". The lines are not a problem for me BUT when I email my resume to someone and these lines are showing up and are not suppose to, I do not want that. They have never shown up before whenever I emailed, faxed or printed the document. I've used this resume format for over 3 years and just recently had gotten laid off and am needing it again. As I said in my first post, the lines are not a problem when I am working with the document but they should NOT be visible when I am emailing the document to someone else. Something is wrong is what I am saying. Can you help me rid the document of them? As I said also, they came from the template that I used to create the resume using Word 2000 and again, they ARE NOT suppose to show up in print, email or faxing. (but for some reason, now they are?????). I just want the document to be visible - NOT THE TABLE LINES TOO. Thanks again for any info.

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hi Suzanne,
Obviously, I do not want to paint the tables and borders using white, I want to get RID OF THEM if that's okay, that is why I wrote back again. I wanted to try and find out why they all of a sudden started showing up on emails and hadn't shown up before? I am trying to get a job here, the resume needs to be PERFECTO, get it??

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
You can't get rid of the tables without taking the text out of a table, and
the gridlines are (as my article explains) a user setting, so you can't get rid of them. If you actually have borders on the résumé, then you can remove them with Ctrl+Alt+U. -- Suzanne S.

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hi Joy,

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Thank you Tony for the info and the clarifications that were done so well !!
I am still under 50 (by 7 years), so maybe I will be able to get that job as you predict !! I think I've confused everyone AND myself by one thing he The lines I am speaking of were obviously used in the template, I do know that, BUT the difference between my using the resume now as opposed to when I was emailing, faxing or mailing it from print before is this: THE LINES NEVER WERE VISIBLE BEFORE, IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, FORM OR FASHION. MYSELF, NOR ANYONE THAT I SENT THE RESUME TO COULD VISIBLY SEE THE LINES USED FOR FORMATTING THRU THE TEMPLATE. BUT NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE LINES ARE SHOWING UP WHEN I EMAIL THE DOCUMENT BUT ON THE SECOND PAGE ALONE. DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE NOW? I understand what the lines are, what they are used for, etc. but they should not be visible, never have been before in any way and NOW, the lines are visible on the second page of the resume when I emailed it the other day. I've checked and re-checked and they just show up on that second page. By the way, I've used all of the advice I've gotten, nothing has worked, the lines are still visible on this second page only when I email the document. I'm considering just redoing the entire thing from scratch and not use a template thru Word or anything else. Was wondering what would be another way to create it without using Word. (not Wordperfect either). Are there any specific programs out there that are free and spyware free also that can be used to create a quick and GOOD LOOKING resume. I want to focus on my skills and not my past jobs. (Union problems don't make for good references ya know !!) Lemme know of anything. Thanks for EVERYTHING Tony.

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hey JoAnn,
If it's true like Tony says that I can get a job if I'm under 50, then I should be okay for 7 years. (Hope to God it wouldn't take that many years or I will be in some home in Idaho myself by that time !!). Thanks for everything. The problem hasn't gone away but I've decided to just quit worrying about it and create another resume using another program instead of using a Word Template (dont' think the templates come with the trial version anyway do they)? As I asked Tony, lemme know if u know of some program that will create a quick nice looking resume that I can use, a free program that isn't full of spyware if I have to download it to use it). I would like to do this a simple way instead of starting from scratch and having to format and do everything on my own. (God only knows how it would turn out then !!) Write back is you have any more suggestions for me, I'd like to hear them. T Again, Thanks and have a great day.

Next, let me make clear: * Word is a tool for editing documents * Table Gridlines are an editing aid * They are how Word shows the boundaries of tables * They do not print and do not fax * The viewing of them can be turned on or off - by *user* choice * Word 2000 and Word 2003 are the same in this regard If you do not want people to see the gridlines, do not send them a copy of your resumé in Word format; send it as a PDF. That said, assuming the jobs you are after do not require a knowledge of Word you have nothing to worry about. Your CV has been the same since you first set it up and recipients of it will not have a problem with seeing the gridlines. If you want to get a job: * relax * be under 50 Good luck! -- Enjoy, Tony "uRmySunshine" wrote in message ... Hi Tony, I was afraid I was talking too much and my msg. would not be "clear". The lines are not a problem for me BUT when I email my resume to someone and these lines are showing up and are not suppose to, I do not want that.

Problems w/resume created in Word 2000
Hey JoAnn,
Like I said, I really am "warped" in the mind, how am I suppose to contact you ??? Lemme know. Thanks (I've been up all night at a temp job and my mind is fading fast, if it was ever there to begin with Joy "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote: It's not the format - it's the content that counts! There is no "magic template" that will guarantee you a job. Contact me offline and we can talk about some of the things that will or won't work on a resume. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "uRmySunshine" wrote in message news Hey JoAnn, If it's true like Tony says that I can get a job if I'm under 50, then I should be okay for 7 years. (Hope to God it wouldn't take that many years or I will be in some home in Idaho myself by that time !!). Thanks for everything. The problem hasn't gone away but I've decided to just quit worrying about it and create another resume using another program instead of using a Word Template (dont' think the templates come with the trial version anyway do they)? As I asked Tony, lemme know if u know of some program that will create a quick nice looking resume that I can use, a free program that isn't full of spyware if I have to download it to use it). I would like to do this a simple way instead of starting from scratch and having to format and do everything on my own. (God only knows how it would turn out then !!) Write back is you have any more suggestions for me, I'd like to hear them. T Again, Thanks and have a great day.
