SYMPTOMS
When you paste a Word table as a Microsoft Word document object or as a picture, some of the table borders may not be visible. The number and location of borders that disappear vary, based on zoom percentage and video resolution.

NOTE: This is a display-only problem and does not affect the printed output of your Word table.



CAUSE
When the Word table is pasted as a Microsoft Word document object or as a picture, it may be scaled to the area into which it is being pasted. Thinner borders (for example, 1/2 pt borders) may disappear or not be visible.



WORKAROUND
To make the Word table borders visible, change the zoom setting in Microsoft Word. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the View menu, click Zoom.
 * 2) In the Zoom dialog box, click a percentage of zoom that is greater than your current zoom setting, and then click OK.

For example, click 100% or 150%.

NOTE: The right border of the table still may not be visible on your screen, but it appears when the file is printed.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
