Word Template Modification

Posted on by 572

I am trying to modify my Sales reports (Invoice, Order, etc.).  However, if I merge any cells in the detail table it loses the line at the bottom of the column. 

I have tried everything to bring it back.  Does anyone have any suggestions to make this work?

Thanks

Debra

    I understand your pain. When we changed over to templates, I created many from a blank page. It's painful.

    Try creating the table and formatting how you want it before you drop the fields in. I think that will give you the best shot.

    I did try to recreate the table by copying it in from another template.  But as soon as I made the same modification the line disappeared.  But I think that is likely the solution.  I will just have to change how I merge the cells (or something).  Too much work for one little line!

    Thanks

    I've had templates do some very odd things. At times, I've had to delete the table and recreate it in Word, then drop the fields in.

    Yes, I thought that would work but it didn’t.

    To duplicate: In the SOP Bank Invoice, take and merge two cells in the detail section.  Now remove (or add) a line from the left side of the merged sections.  It seems if you try to modify any line in the section something goes off.

    Voila!  The bottom line in the report disappears.  It is still showing in the template but not the resulting report!

     Maybe it is just me!

    Do you mean the graphical line? If so, you just need to change the cell's Border properties. Highlight the cells in that row, right click and go to Borders and Shading.
