How do I remove horizontal lines from inside table cells?
These lines have suddenly appeared. They are not part of the cell or table
border and not in every cell. Help please. |

How do I remove horizontal lines from inside table cells?
Possibly borders or underlines on the text in the cell?

Text in affected cells had the style 'Header'. Selecting the whole cells and
changing the style to 'Normal' removed the horizontal lines. Thanks "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Possibly borders or underlines on the text in the cell? -- Suzanne S.

Ah, sounds like a border has been applied to the Header style. Seeing this
style in a table (unintended) suggests that you may have "Define styles based on your formatting" enabled (Tools | AutoCorrect Options | AutoFormat As You Type). What this option actually does (in my experience, anyway) is "apply styles based on your formatting," i.e., look at the formatting of your text and make a (usually poor) guess about what style you meant it to be. The Header style in a table was the first instance of this that I noticed. -- Suzanne S.

Exactly - This style was defined a number of years ago when I used a table in
a Header and a one-and-a-half point line at the bottom of the table added to separate the table in the header from the main text. I subsequently learnt more about headers and used Tabs to separate items in the header. Many thanks for your help! "Suzanne S.
