Diagonal line across a table cell in AutoCAD.

The TABLE object in an AutoCAD DWG may be damaged (e.g. by saving the DWG in an non-standard app) and this problem can appear e.g. by displaying a diagonal line through a header cell - instead of a standard rectangular cell border. But sich problém cen be fixed quite easily.

Just select the complaining cell (e.g. a header cell) and in the Properties palette (Ctrl+1) use the field "Border lineweight" (the Cell Border Properties dialog) to set a different border - e.g. back to "Outside borders" (rectangle). And save the change.
