Dragging column border

Anonymous

When I have a table and want to drag the vertical column border right or left, if I position the cursor just right I can see two vertical lines and arrows.

But they're really small and I wonder if there's a way to get something bigger to drag. Increasing the display size doesn't help.

I had this problem with w2010, though if I remember right it wasn't so tricky with w2007.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

    If you display the horizontal ruler, you can drag column borders there as well. There may be some difference in the results; I don't remember all the details, but they're spelled out in http://wordfaqs.ssbarnhill.com/TableBasicsRibbon.htm#SizingTables
