Okay guys I'm about to rock your world. I knew there had to be a way to do this. After experimenting with Microsoft Word all day long I have the formula and I am happy to share.[:)] <br />Using Word, create a table that is 36 columns wide by 45 rows. Change your measurement in Word by going to Tools, Options, General and change your measurements units to mm. Now highlight the entire table and go to Table, Table Properties. On the Row tab, select Specify Height and make it 3.5mm and change the Row Height is box to exactly.Then go to the colum tab and change the preferred width to 7mm. I tried changing it to 3.5 but Word won't make the table column width any smaller than 4mm. So use 7mm and just remember that your columns are 2 HO scale feet wide and your rows are 1 HO scale feet high. If you have done it right, you should have a table that fills up just about the entire sheet. Oh in your page setup change your margins to 25mm top and bottom and 15mm left and right. Change your paper size to Landscape. That should do it. <br />Good luck with your HO graph paper. <br />John
