  • Microsoft Word 2000

This article was previously published under Q209737

SYMPTOMS

When you draw a table with a specific border style, diagonal lines that you draw may not be drawn with the same border style.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design in Microsoft Word. You may only apply the following border styles to diagonal lines:
  • Solid
  • Dot
  • Dash
  • Long Dash
  • Dash Dot
  • Dash Dot Dot
  • Double Line
Word draws all other border styles as a single-line border for diagonal lines.
