Page Border

Hello,

Hope someone can help.

In my document I want to put a border around the first
page but when I go to "Format" & "Borders and Shading"
the tab labelled "Page Border" is greyed out not allowing
me to select it. Any ideas why this is happening?

I am able to select it when opening a new blank document.

Thanks

Ray

Hi Ray,

The first thing that occurs to me is that you may not be in
Print Layout View?

I don't think that would matter. I can select a page border from Normal
view.
