Table gridlines ON default
I just upgraded to Word 2007 and I can't seem to set the table gridlines to
default ON as it was in my old version of Word. Also, not related to Tables per se, but I would like the Paragragh marks to default to ON as well and it seems I have to re-select this each time I open Word. I read on here that Adobe caused problems in saving to Normal.dot. I have tried the suggestions posted ie. using Save ALL and installing the latest version of Adobe 7 (7.0.9) to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Table gridlines ON default
Those particular options are stored in a registry key, not in the
Normal.dotm template. Use the instructions at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErr...ngMenusEtc.htm, using the version number 12.0 for Word 2007 in place of the ones listed for earlier versions in the article. Further information about this registry key is at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...eySettings.htm.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! There is even a simpler solution. Set up a table and remove the borders (you now have a blank table where you cannot see the gridlines). Then click on the Layout tab, and click on "View Gridlines". Your gridlines should now appear. Even better, Word 2007 now assumes that you prefer the gridline setting as your default. The next time you go to set up a table and remove all borders, the gridlines will appear. This will remain your default until you create a table and de-select "View Gridlines". |
