I've found the answer in this community, and it seems to be an easy procedure. But I can't quite understand it. Specifically, where do I find [Copy style] button & [Paste style} button?
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Early '06, Also use OS 10.5 & 10.7
Hi Glen,
Menu > Format > Copy Style (option command c) and Paste Style (option command v).
The buttons are under Menu > View > Customize Toolbar.
True for Numbers '09 and Numbers 3.

I have searched for Menu, unsuccessfully. I believe that I have a legitimate Numbers App. When I click on 'About Numbers' I see a window that looks like the standard Numbers icon, and that also contains the text "Numbers '09 version 2.0 (299)" Under Format > Advanced I see Define Style, but it's 'greyed out', so I'm having trouble following simple directions !
Hi Glen,
Numbers '09
Copy Style, click where you want to repeat the style, Paste Style.
Or if you want the buttons on the toolbar,

Thanks ! When I first tried to copy the border selection for a cell, I couldn't do so. But, I found that I could copy the border IF it was all four borders, i.e, a rectangle, and I could use that designation.

I think you are correct. Copy Style for Cell Borders (top table) and Paste style into the second table only seems to work for me if the source cell has all four borders formatted.
Perhaps there are tricks that we have not yet tried 😕.
