Copy Excel Spread Sheet to Front Page

G

Guest

I have been using Windows XP, FP 2003 and Office 2003 for a couple of years
to build web sites. I have copied Excel spread sheets to a blank page in FP
and saved them in FP. I then have copied the text from the spread sheet to my
table with no problem until recently. Now when I copy the text to the table
the boarders are removed from the cells. The table properties tell me the
boarders are there but all you see are the dotted lines indicating no
boarder. I am unable to restore the boarders any way I have tried. When I
paste I keep the source formatting. Can anyone help???? I am about "NUTS"
trying to figure out what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Ron

Set the border thickness to a value higher than 0.

Thanks Jens. My boarders are set to a value of two. The table is fine until I
paste in text to two or more cells then the boarders in these cells are
removed and replaced with dotted lines. I am unable to restore the boarders.
Thanks

Try using Save as html in Excel and File Importing the html page into FP
