Default can't change table border colors

Hello,



Please see the attached document.

It contains a table with some text in it. I want to format the table to have borders on the top and bottom but not on the sides. The borders on the top and bottom need to be purple.

I can hide the side borders and make the top/bottom borders visible. It's the coloring I'm having trouble with.

When I go into Borders and Shading in Table Properties, I set everything like so:



Then I click OK, and OK again, but the top and bottom table borders have not changed their color.

In the borders and shading window you need to click on the top and bottom lines again to remove. Click on them again to add them and the color will change.
