How to put this line to my table

Hi, My name is David and im here to help

Here's how you can add a thin line to your table in Microsoft Word:

Select the table: Click anywhere inside your table to select it. You should see the Table Tools tab appear in the ribbon at the top.

Navigate to the Borders option: In the Table Tools tab, click on the Design tab.

Choose a border style: Look for the Borders option in the Design tab. Click on the arrow next to Borders to expand the menu.

Select a border style: From the drop-down menu, choose the border style you want for your table. You can select options like "All Borders" to apply borders to all cells in the table, or you can choose "Outside Borders" to apply borders only to the outer edges of the table.

Adjust line thickness: Once you have applied borders to your table, you can adjust the line thickness to make it thinner. Right-click on the table, select "Borders and Shading", and then navigate to the Borders tab in the dialog box. From there, you can choose a line style and adjust the line thickness as desired.

Apply changes: Click OK to apply the changes to your table.

If you need to add a specific type of line that is not available in the default options, you may need to use additional formatting techniques such as drawing lines or using shapes. You can draw a line directly onto your table using the Shapes tool in Microsoft Word.

I hope this helps.

Hi! Chiaki Sugita,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community! 

I realize that you've encountered a problem with A "not too thick" line needs to be added to your Excel sheet. and I understand how you feel.

I noticed that you mentioned that your table is in OneDrive, in order to be able to help you more appropriately, I need to check with you first, is your table shared from another user? Is the owner of the table an individual user or a business user?

Sorry, I am currently unable to see your attached table, this may be due to a known issue with uploading files in the community forums recently. I suggest you resubmit your file to me via private message: please click on your avatar logo in the top right corner of the page > in the popup click on the three dots in the bottom right corner of your username > click on View Private Message
