RE: word 2007 - table cells

Hello Peggy-ann,
I hope you enjoyed your PowerPoint training session with us.

Regarding your question, I want to be sure I understand what you are asking. It sounds like you would like for your table in Word to act like an Excel spreadsheet, where the text is entered, but not visible unless you click on the cell. Is this correct? If so, unfortunately this is not possible in Word. For this capability, you are better off using Excel. You can always mimic the appearance of a Word document in Excel by removing gridlines (Tools > Options > [view tab] untick Gridlines).

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved. If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. And please feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

Have a great day.

Regards,
Mara

Word tip:

Use Paint Brush to do Multiple Formating in Word

To copy a format from one piece of text in Word to multiple words or paragraphs

1. Select the word with the format that you want to copy

2. Double-click on the paint brush icon on the Toolbar

When you move to the word/paragraph where you want to paste the format you will notice that a paint brush follows the cursor.

Paste the format to all the words and paragraphs you need to format.

When finished go back to the paint brush on the Toolbar and single click on it to deactivate the function.
