Vertical line

[LInkerbink]

Is it possible to insert a vertical line? I would like to
visually separate the two columns in a table with a simple
line, but can't find a way to do it.
Using "Format...Borders" puts in a vertical line, but also
breaks the line at each row. Using table borders puts a
border around everything...I just want one vertical line,
like you can do horizontally using "Insert...Horizontal
Line". Is there a way to do this? I'm using FP 2000.
Thanks in advance!

Insert a column between the 2 columns, don't set a width for it, and insert
an image of the line in the cell. You can use a very small image if it's
solid (a 1X1 pixel, 2-color-pallette GIF would do it), and set the height
and width properties of the image to stretch it.

Hi,
you can set a border on the columns, eg
<style type="text/css">
#left{
border-right: 1px solid black;
padding-right: 20px;
}
#right{
padding-left: 20px;
}
</style>

<table>
<tr>
<td id="left">........stuff.....</td>
<td id="right">........stuff......</td>
</tr>
</table>
