Print table without lines Tujunga 3/14/2007 9:18:08 PM I just converted to Office 2007 from Office 2000. In the latter I was able to print the formatted contents of tables without printing the row/column lines. Can I do the same in Word 2007? How? -- Tujunga

Re: Print table without lines Jay Freedman <jay.freedman[ at ]verizon.net> 3/15/2007 5:21:15 AM Select the whole table. You'll see the Table Tools tab and the Design tab within that. At the right end of the Table Styles group, click Borders and then choose No Border. Another way, which is much quicker, is to press the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+U. For that, you don't even have to select the whole table, just put the cursor anywhere in it. A third way is to right-click somewhere in the table and choose Borders and Shading; in the dialog, click the None button on the left, and make sure the Apply To dropdown says "Table". -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Re: Print table without lines Tujunga 3/16/2007 9:13:03 PM I think I mis-worded my concern. What I really wanted was to be able to see the table gridlines on the monitor but have them not print. From what Mr. Friedman wrote I was able to stumble on the answer to what I really wanted. Thanks. -- Tujunga "Jay Freedman" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Select the whole table.

Re: Print table without lines Lorie 12/17/2008 5:21:01 PM Mr. Freedman's Ctrl-Alt-U trick is a great "unformatting" tool, but be careful. It removes all shading in the whole table! The "safest" way to remove the black borders on your table is a 6-step process: Click inside the table. Select Design>Borders>Borders and Shading>None>OK. Repeat for each table that you have in your converted document.
