I tried this in Word 2003 and achieved only partial success, partly, I
think, because of unfamiliarity with table styles. There's probably a way to
make it work, but I find it easier to apply Table Normal (no borders or
anything) and format manually.

I'm using the "Simple 1" table AutoFormat, but it keeps making the
borders
green. I have tried to modify the style, but no matter how many times
I
choose a color other than green, it still reverts immediately to
green. I
would create a new style using black lines, but then I can't figure
out
how
to put the thinner lines after the first row and before the last row
to
mimic
the Simple 1 style.
