Select it for all the column and body row rulings, and something solid for all the outside rulings. If you don't like the dot pattern, open the Custom Ruling and Shading dialog, select Dotted, and click Edit Ruling Style. Either modify the existing Dotted or create a new style by changing the name.

RE: On a deadline - dotted lines for table inside borders?
Hmm, learn something new every day. But, I'm not getting anything that really looks dotted in print. It looks dotted on screen in FM, but prints as light gray. May do the job, but not quite dotted. I did see the post about editing the MIF, but I'm not undertaking that at this late stage. ~ Linda G.

OK, you can create one. 1) In the Custom Ruling and Shading dialog's Apply Ruling Style list, select None and click Edit Ruling Style. 2) In the Edit Ruling Style dialog, enter Dotted (or any name you want) in the Name box. 3) Set Pen Pattern to something less than 100% and click Set. 4) Select some table cells and, in the Edit Ruling Style dialog, apply Dotted (or whatever you named it) to some borders. 5) Evaluate the results. If necessary, repeat using a different Pen Pattern setting (and maybe Width) until you like the result. Or at least can live with it. :-) HTH, and Happy Weekend! Richard G.
