Open form with table gridlines hidden by default?
Hi Markus,
Although you can include AutoNew and AutoOpen macros in the template that would turn off the gridlines, it's much harder to be sure that the gridlines are turned on again when the user closes your document or switches to another document if that's what their initial setting was. A better approach is to use Format Borders & Shading to turn on all the table borders in your template and set their color to white. That will hide the gridlines if they're turned on, but won't affect any other documents. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

I save the template with "Table / Show gridlines" turned off - anyway when the document is opened, the gridlines are visible again. Can I set gridlines turned off in the document by default? (Word 2002) Or, as a workaround, is there an option where the users of the templates can set this as a default for their Words? Thanks Markus |
