How to keep border format when pasting
In Word, I have a two-column table that has no borders (lines) showing. When
I copy the table, and paste it in another Word document, borders (lines) appear all around and inside the table (like a square with a big plus sign inside). To correct this, I always have to (1) highlight the whole table; (2) right-click the little compass that appears when the mouse is on the top -left corner of the table; (3) select "borders and shading"; and (4) select the setting as "None". Is there an easier/better way? |

The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+U will remove the borders.

Also, if you select TableNormal rather than TableGrid as your default Table
AutoFormat, you shouldn't experience the problem in the first place. -- Suzanne S.
