Thumbs up Answer: Aligning borders with multiple tables in a single document

Hi Craig,

I understand your frustration with the misaligned table borders in your document. Fortunately, there are a few ways to fix this issue.
  1. Use the Gridlines featu
    In Word, you can display gridlines to help you align tables. To do this, go to the "Layout" tab and click on "View Gridlines". This will display the gridlines for all tables in your document. You can then adjust the tables so that the gridlines line up.
  2. Adjust the table properties:
    Another way to align table borders is to adjust the table properties. To do this, right-click on the table and select "Table Properties". In the "Table Properties" dialog box, go to the "Table" tab and adjust the "Indent from left" and "Indent from right" values until the borders line up. You can also adjust the "Table alignment" option to center the table on the page.
  3. Use the ruler:
    You can also use the ruler to align table borders. To do this, go to the "View" tab and make sure the "Ruler" option is selected. Then, click and drag the table to align it with the ruler.

I hope these tips help you align the table borders in your document.
