Connection between Table Designer and Paragraph Designer?

Hi Eva,

You can't specify different formats for subsequent rows; only the first row 
of each type can be set.

Lines are set in the Ruling tab of the Table Designer. You can create and 
edit ruling formats by choosing Table > Custom Ruling & Shading. Then click 
the Edit Ruling Style button.
