Tables in MS-Word (Borders & Shading)
Tables in MS-Word (Part - 2)
(Borders & Shading)
Borders
Lower most option is Borders and Shading... When we click on this option a new window appears.
The border can be given to the line also other than the table cells of a table. When have not drawn any table the window appears as above, but when we draw a table and our cursor is on the table than it appears as below.
The difference you can easily see that options for diagonal, vertical and horizontal line also appears.
Box: If you click on box than a border around the line where your cursor is will appear. If it is your first line and enter has never been pressed than the border will continue to be there till you don't remove it from the menu.
Shadow: When we click on the shadow, a shadow will appear with the box.
3-D: When we click on 3-D, 3-D effect is applied to the lines. But it is not too proper.
Custom: Custom gives us option to choose where we want lines at top, bottom, left or right side. In case we have selected box and we click on any one than also selection changes to custom. Window appears like the below one.
Style: In this we select the style which we want as border.
Color: In this we select the color of border.
Width: In this we select the width of border.
Options button: In this we choose the distance between line and text, these are given in points. This is given only in lines not in table for table we have another option, that will be described in another blog.
In above picture you can see the difference that the gap between line and word is less in the below line where the distance from left and right has been changed to 1pt from 4pt.
