Re: Macro for table problems

Hi John,

I always use AutoCorrect instead of AutoText for these things (habit). I
just tried it with a table that had no borders at all and with bold in just
one cell. It reproduces fine.

I don't know why AutoText isn't working for you but try AutoCorrect and see
if it makes a difference.

By the way, when you get rid of table borders, they turn gray; they don't
actually disappear (except when you print). Could that be what you're
seeing?

Thanks, Dailya. The reason I tried a macro (which MIcrosoft Support
recommended) was that I'd alrady tried Autotext. When I used this, it
produced borders although the table I'd selected had none, and (if I
remember correctly) it didn't have bold in one column as did the
selected table.
