Table properties

Post by jmt356 »

I have one cell in a table whose left and right cell margins I want to change to 0". The only way I know how to do this is to go to Table Properties, go to Options, and then change these values to 0, but these settings affect the table's default settings. HOwever, I only want to change these borders for one particular cell. How can I do this?
Regards,

JMT

Click in the cell.

In Word 2003 or before, select Table | Table Properties.
In Word 2007 or later, activate the Layout tab of the ribbon and click Properties.
Activate the Cell tab of the Table Properties dialog.
Click Options...
Cleart the check box "Same as the whole table".
Set the margins to 0.
Click OK twice.
Best wishes,
Hans
