Cells in spreadsheets can have borders around them to help make the data appear more organized. In addition, the use of borders can also help accentuate certain data that you want readers to notice first.

Using the Format Toolbar is one method for adding borders around cells. However, there is another method that allows users to have more control in the way data appears.

To add borders around cells containing data, go to Format in the toolbar and click on Cells.

 

 A new dialog window will appear with several tabs. Make sure that the Border tab is showing (if it is not, click on it).
