Word Text Borders Won't go Away
I created text borders by pressing the shift+8 key continuously until a
dotted line was created the entire width of the page. These lines were used to separate line items in text. I went to "Format"+ "Borders & Shading" and attempted to remove all borders from my document. All borders were then removeable except for a few. They seem to stick to the bottom of a page or the top. I have not entered any data into footnotes or headers. Any suggestions on how to rid my document of these stubborn borders? Thanks! -- tcdominic |

Perhaps you've inadvertently enabled page borders? In Format | Borders and
Shading, click the "None" option on the Page Border tab. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "tcdominic" wrote in message ...

Word Text Borders Won't go Away
-- I did try. I have tried every conceivable setting I could think of under "Format/ Borders/Shading". I have a couple of very stubborn lines that refuse to go away at the bottoms of a few pages. I have tried deleting the last few items on the pages (thinking these borders were attached to those blocks of text. They just magically reattach the the "new" last item on the page. If I insert space & force them to the next page, the border line remains at the bottom of that page, but also creates a new one on the top of the next page. Any other suggestions? tcdominic "Stefan Blom" wrote: Perhaps you've inadvertently enabled page borders?
