Introduction

You can enhance the readability of your worksheet by adding borders.

Add Borders

1. Highlight the cells you want to display borders for.

2. Click the arrow pointing down from the standard toolbar's border button. (The border button has four small boxes with a black line for the bottom line. This is usually at the right of your screen.)

Tip: If the border button is not displayed, click the >> button to display all of the buttons.

3. Select the type of border you want from the menu that appears.

Tip: To remove the borders, follow Steps 1-3 except select the border that only displays four boxes, not with a dark blank line.
