Looking at your screenshots, I see that you have single cells in your table with many lines of text. You do not have a single table "row" for each line of text.

You cannot enable internal borders because there are no internal borders. No gridlines will display inside a cell.

See the screenshot below. Note the end-of-cell markers.

    Hi,

    Sorry to hear that.

    I'm Emmie Lou, an independent advisor who would be happy to help you in solving your problem.

    You may split cells to insert horizontal lines in your table.

    To split cells:

    1. Click in a cell, or select multiple cells that you want to split.
    2. Under Table Tools, on the Layout tab, in the Merge group, click Split Cells.
    3. Enter the number of columns or rows that you want to split the selected cells into.

    Here's the official link you may check out where I found this workaround.

    Just feel free to let me know if this information helps or should you need further assistance.

    Best Regards,

    Emmie Lou

    Hi,

    I found that this problem is coming with only one table. Rest of the tables are displaying the rows without any problem and I tried the border option, it also works fine with them.

    Problem not yet solved for one table.

    May I just clarify how do you want to show the horizontal lines? Do you want to show a line after every sentence?
