Hello Beth,

Other than with style sheets, there isn't. But I know this is not=
 really 
what you would like to listen :)

There's a way if you are working for a closed environment that=
 uses IE 
(like an intranet on some company). You could in that case use=
 the 
bordercolor attribute of the TD tag and hide borders by making=
 their color 
equal to the background. But mind you, this is not supported by=
 NN and is 
not recognized by W3C standards.

I suggest you move on to CSS. It's more easy than one thinks at=
 first 
glance and it allows you to do things you could never do with=
 just HTML.
