I need to make an attendance sheet. I have a nice little table, but
need to draw an angled line extending from each column to put the da
of the week, that extends to the top of the page. I have tried th
"draw line" option, but it either extends too far into the column, o
won't line up and looks awful. I wonder if someone could guide me o
the best way to do this? Thanks, Colleen

Excel can do angled headings; Word cannot. But you can rotate the text in
table cells. Just make your heading row deep enough to accommodate the dates
vertically and then use Text Direction to rotate it.
