Cell border confusion after cells are merged
I build fill-me-out forms with tables in Word instead of using underline,
underline, underline...to make it easy to fill-in electronically...or after printed. Part of my process is...build the table, select all, clear all borders, merge cells as needed...say Name field on first line because I built the table column count based on the City, State, Postal line. Here's my challenge...and I'm gonna say I think Word is getting confused after cells are merged. I'll go back to the blank, fill-in cells (cell-by-cell) and put a border on the bottom...my underline. These days, when I go to underline some cells...where I've merged cells in the line above or below...the entire row gets underlined. I'm at a loss. I've tried a few different methods of bordering...click the button on the tool bar, highlight the cell and right-click it and go to Borders / Shading, and even get a cell that works and CTRL-Y it to the next cell. Any ideas? Thanks, Doug |
