Paste without borders

Word 2002
We have a signature block that's in a table, which is beautiful and happy.
When someone copies it and pastes it into a new location, or a new document,
the borders (as opposed to gridlines, I'm talking about the borders that
print) come back. Is there an easy way to copy and paste this without
having the border?

I tried creating a quick fill, but even though I create the quickfill with
no borders, when I use it, the borders show.

Is there an easy answer to my question. I'm almost positive I used to have
a quickfill for a table cell that didn't have borders, but I could be wrong.

Thanks!!

How tables paste depends on the default Table AutoFormat selected for a
given document/template. If you have Table Normal (no borders) selected for
the source document (or have just removed the borders from the table ) and
have Table Grid (which I believe is the default, at least in older versions
and so perhaps in documents/templates created in older versions) selected in
the target document/template, then you'll get borders.
