I'm using FM 7.2, but I doubt that this has changed. It's a two-part process. First, you have to define a new ruling line style. Then, you can apply it using the Table Designer. 1) Go to Table > Custom Ruling and Shading. 2) In the Custom Ruling and Shading dialog box, click Edit Ruling Style. 3) In the Edit Ruling Style dialog box, change Name to something meaningful, like "Green 1pt." 4) Change Color to the color you want, set Width as desired, and click Set. Now, when you go to the Table Designer's Ruling tab, your new ruling line style will be available in the various ruling line lists. HTH! Richard G.
