Table Borders in Word Disappearing
Over the past week or so, the table borders in our company's Word documents are disappearing. I am seeing a lot of posts in message boards around the internet where people are having the same issue. ...
May try on this before Microsoft release the fix:
- Apply Borders Manually (Not via Style)
o Select the table → Table Design → Borders → All Borders. - Save in Compatibility Mode
o Save the document as .doc (Word 97–2003) or explicitly set compatibility mode. - Disable AutoSave Temporarily
o If working in OneDrive/SharePoint, turn off AutoSave while editing.
o Reapply borders, save, then reopen to check persistence. - Use Shading/Cell Backgrounds
o As a temporary visual workaround, apply cell shading (light gray or color) to mimic borders
