SYMPTOMS
When you use the Visual Basic for Applications Borders.Count command on a selected paragraph, the value returned is five instead of an expected value of four.
CAUSE
By design, Borders.Count returns five because paragraph borders have an inside horizontal border which you can set and/or retrieve even though it may not visible. If you insert another paragraph, the inside border may or may not become visible, depending on your setting.
