Excel: Colored cell border
I have an invoice form that for some reason, unknown to me, has a bottom cell border that is red and I can not find a way to change it back to black. I'm sure I "fat fingered" something at some point...
- Jul 01, 2019That looks like the Table fill handle. It definitely looks out of place, so select the Due upon cell, then go to Table Design > Convert to Range. If the formatting still applies, you might want to select the cells in question and go to Home > Styles > Normal.

When the screenshot posted the red color of the line went to a grey rather than red... I've tried all the usual ways to edit cell borders with no luck. There is a small black mark at the right lower corner of the group of affected cells. It looks almost like a "left tab" formatting mark from Word. I have no idea what it is and I have no idea how to make it go away.

That was it! Once I converted it back to a normal range then I was able to change the border back to black. Thanks so much!
