Why am I being blocked from formatting borders and shading?
Only in a particular Word document am I having the following problem:
When I attempt "format borders and shading" (which includes "page border"), I am blocked from doing so with the following error message: "The measurement must be between 1 pt and 3 pts." When I copy the table to a new document, I have no trouble. When I copy everything in the document to a new document, the problem remains.

Hi Common Man,
It may be the document has become corrupt - your problem description certainly suggests this possibility. You may be able to retrieve the situation by inserting a new, empty, paragraph at the end of the document, then copying everything except that new paragraph to a new document. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Common Man" Common wrote in message news  Only in a particular Word document am I having the following problem: When I attempt "format borders and shading" (which includes "page border"), I am blocked from doing so with the following error message: "The measurement must be between 1 pt and 3 pts."
