Tables in WRD 2003

I avoid them too. My comment was based on a quick test in Word 2000
(where the shortcut does not clear the AutoFormat, but it does clear
the default simple borders applied to a table created without
selecting an AutoFormat).

I thought so but wasn't going to argue with you since I never use
table
styles/AutoFormats. g

My mistake! It does work in Word 2003, even with a table
AutoFormat/style applied.

Good point. But Ctrl+Alt+u won't work if the borders were
applied as
an AutoFormat or a table style.

Even easier. Place the selection in the table and then hold
down
the Ctrl
and the Alt keys and press u.

To remove all borders: Select the whole table, for example,
by
pressing Alt+5 (use the 5 on the numeric keypad) with
NUMLOCK
turned
off. Then, on the Format menu, click Borders and Shading.
Click
the
"None" option. Make sure that "Apply to" is set to "Table,"
and
click
OK.

Hi

I've got a very long table with several columns and 100
or
more
rows. The
table borders are a solid line now but I want to get rid
of
the
borders
altogether.

Is there a way I can do this with a couple of clicks
rather
than
having to
click on each and every line?
