SYMPTOMS
If a table contains a border and shading, the border may extend farther than the length of the cell.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Word listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Word 97 for Windows.

WORKAROUND
Insert a column at the beginning of the shading that is .01-inch wide and has 0 inches of space between columns. Format this column for shading but not with a border. This will cause the shading and the border to be aligned.
