Set Table Borders in BIRT

Set Table Borders in BIRT.

hi,
In here i try to give you  a brief  description about add uniform table borders.when you create a table some times it disappears its borders.its very tedious work to add it again.

a.when mouse pointer goes on the table it appears "Table" handle in the bottom left corner.Click on it to get the row / column handles.


b.Click on the top-left corner and this will select the whole table (although in the Properties window you will see “Cell”!).

 c.Now set the desired border setting in the Properties window and they will be applied uniformly (Excel style) on all cells in the table.
