gridlines
I am trying to enter a new task using copied material from a spreadsheet
keeping the gridlines. Although it does copy, it does not allow me to type into the gridlines. How can I copy a small portion of an excel document and then make changes in my task? |

No, it's not a picture. I have a very large spreadsheet (which has
gridlines) that I want to cut/paste into a task. It takes the words, but not the gridlines.. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: are you pasting as a picture?

oh. you need to apply borders. True gridlines are just for viewing.
In Outlook 2007, look on the layout ribbon - you can enable view gridlines (you need to be in one of the cells to see the ribbon tab) or select the entire table and right click, borders and shading. Older versions should have the same options. Or you can add borders in Excel. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

Outlook 2003 and I don't know about Excel. The bordes I have in excel are
around each cell but I can change the borders any way I like. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: Hmm. That is weird. Which version of Outlook and Excel?
