To set the FramesetBorderWidth property to zero using Visual Basic for Applications, you can achieve the same effect by turning off the displaying of frame page borders. For example, the following command line turns off the display of frame page borders:


ActiveWindow.ActivePane.Frameset.FrameDisplayBorders = False

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
