Formatting the line between columns in Word Mac 2011

[bpanda]

I am currently using Word Mac 2011. I know how to insert a line between columns with Word but how do you format the line? I want to make it a light grey so that it won't show up strongly in the printout. I need the line just to help me fold the pamphlet (I am designing one of those pamphlets on an A4 sheet which you fold into three).

I've tried picking up the text in the column and checking out the Borders and Shading menu but it doesn't show up there. Where does it show up?



Many thanks for your help.

AFAIK, there is no way to change this - it's either on or off. You could work around this by overlaying the column marker with a semi-transparent rectangular shape (eg borderless white, with 5% transparency).
