Inside vertical borders in a resume
I'm revising my resume but running into a problem. I've noticed on several
resumes that a small vertical line, sometimes shaded, is next to the person's name and all of their info is on the right side of the line (address, city,state, zip, email, phone). Sometimes the borders are in the body of the resume. How do I create those lines in a resume? |

Inside vertical borders in a resume
There are several possibilities but the simplest is the use of Tables. Apply
the preferred Borders to the Table cells. You might consider looking for a resume template that's already designed that way. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones Office:Mac MVP "Sandy Sue" Sandy wrote in message ...

I wouldn't advise that route, though. Every résumé template I've ever seen
has used a table, and if the résumé requires something more elaborate than can be achieved with hanging indents and tabs, a table is the way to go (especially if borders are wanted). -- Suzanne S.

I agree whole-heartedly - simply threw it out there "just in case" :-)
