Default Cell Bottom-Border becomes Upper-Border on Next Page

I have a table with Column2 having cells with bottom-borders. The trouble
is, when the table breaks to another page, the first cell of Column2 has a
upper-border, which I don't want. If I format the borders for that cell to
not show an upper border, I lose the bottom-border on the preceding page's
Column2 cell.

How can I avoide the upper border "appearing" in the cell?

TIA

I should have said "...when the table breaks to another page, the first cell
of Column2 on the new page has an upper-border...", to be clearer.

zSplash,
Go to the last row of the preceeding page remove the bottom line of that
cell(s) that should give you what you want. If I understood correctly that
is.

Thanks for responding, Luc, but that doesn't solve it. I want the last cell
(in the column that's all bottom-bordered) on the page to be
bottom-bordered, while the first cell on the next page to have no
top-border. If I remove the bottom-border formatting of the last cell on
the page, the top bordering on the subsequent cell is cleared, but the last
cell is not bottom-underlined).

Any other ideas, guys? TIA

Select the table, then go to TableTable Properties & click the Borders &
Shading button. Click 'None' from the settings on the left, then on the
right click the 2nd (Inside Horizontal) & 3rd (Bottom) buttons. That should
do the trick... At least it works here
