Hi
I wrote a macro to create a table in a header in Word 97. Having upgraded to
2003, the borders all disappear when the document is printed.

The macro text is below (a lot of the text is irrelevant, but didn't want to
confuse by editing out bits). Does anyone have any suggestions for getting
the borders back?

Thanks

May I ask why you're using a macro instead of just creating a template that
already has the table in the header?

Hi Suzanne
The documents are being opened through a document control software package,
which contains 1000+ documents. The information which populates the header
is called by the macro from the software. At the time of commissioning, we
were advised to use a macro to create the header, that way we could more
easily control any changes to the format. Whether that's correct or not,
we're stuck with it, as all the documents are linked to the macro, and can
only be changed by a rather convoluted process through the software. I'm
afraid I'm just after a quick fix this time round!
Thanks

In that case, modify the macro to apply borders to your table. Seems
stunningly irresponsible to have 1000+ documents based on such a
conspicuously incompetent bit of macro coding. With so much at stake you're
likely to be better off -- even in the short term -- biting the bullet and
applying a good solution rather than trying to patch up a bad one.

Point taken, hindsight is a wonderful thing. Irony is the code was provided
by one of the MS newsgroup folk, so there you go!

Can anyone provide the lines of code so the borders appear, to at least help
us inthe short term - these documents are being printed out daily, so I
really do need the quick fix at the moment!

Thanks

I'm assuming you just want standard width, plain line, black borders on all
four sides of each cell. Change the arguments as needed if you want
something else.

Point taken, hindsight is a wonderful thing. Irony is the code was
provided
by one of the MS newsgroup folk, so there you go!

Can anyone provide the lines of code so the borders appear, to at least
help
us inthe short term - these documents are being printed out daily, so I
really do need the quick fix at the moment!

Thanks

In that case, modify the macro to apply borders to your table. Seems
stunningly irresponsible to have 1000+ documents based on such a
conspicuously incompetent bit of macro coding. With so much at stake
you're
likely to be better off -- even in the short term -- biting the bullet
and
applying a good solution rather than trying to patch up a bad one.

Hi Suzanne
The documents are being opened through a document control software
package,
which contains 1000+ documents. The information which populates the
header
is called by the macro from the software. At the time of
commissioning,
we
were advised to use a macro to create the header, that way we could
more
easily control any changes to the format. Whether that's correct or
not,
we're stuck with it, as all the documents are linked to the macro, and
can
only be changed by a rather convoluted process through the software.
I'm
afraid I'm just after a quick fix this time round!
Thanks

May I ask why you're using a macro instead of just creating a
template
that
already has the table in the header?

Hi
I wrote a macro to create a table in a header in Word 97. Having
upgraded
to
2003, the borders all disappear when the document is printed.

The macro text is below (a lot of the text is irrelevant, but
didn't
want
to
confuse by editing out bits). Does anyone have any suggestions for
getting
the borders back?

Thanks

Hi Jezebel
Making decisions from an ignorant point of view is always going to be dodgy
I guess! )
The code worked fine, many thanks.
For when we look to moving over to templates - is this the right newsgroup?
Cheers
