The message about using the Draw Borders toolbar was from Fancy1, not
from me. And it doesn't help with conditional formatting of borders.

Deb,

Sounds like you found something however, your description lost me. The draw
borders icon on the formatting toolbar only allows you to select a border
position. I don't see what you are refering to when you say "Draw Borders"

In the normal cell formatting menu when I select the borders tab, I can
select a line thicknes. If I select a thick line, when I leave this dialog,
I can now use the borders icon on the formatting toolbar to put a thick
border around a ceell by just using the toolbar selection. And this works
well,however, if I select a cell that has conditional formatting on it, it
always defaults to a thin line border.

Is this what you were refering to?

No, you can only use the borders that are shown in the conditional
formatting dialog box. Conditional formatting options don't include
anything that might change the row height.

When I go to use conditional formatting I find I can only use a subset of the
normal border line thicknesses. Is there any way to select a thicker border
when using conditional formatting?

I discovered that if you click on the Borders icon on the Formatting
toolbar, click on Draw Borders . . . you can change the borders as thick
as you want. Yes, you will have to go over the cells by hand, but the
borders are definitely thicker!!
