If you’re not using a Child Theme, and if the theme doesn’t have a section for CSS modifications then do the following:
- Install this Custom CSS Manager plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin
- use its “CSS Code” section of the dashboard to hold your CSS modifications:
-
(put this code in)
table,
td {
border: 0;
}
- Save
Alternatively use your Child Theme style.css file to hold your CSS modifications

quick response appreciated. inserted code, and this works well, with the drawback that it knocked out the “menu” borders. can we put these back in place ?

Can you show us a webpage with the table borders that you want to remove?

i removed the “border: 0” code from the child theme so you can view the original with the grey border.
however, being in maintenace mode, do you need me to take it out of that mode for you to view it ?

Try:
.entry-content td,
.entry-content table {
border: 0;
}

By the way, there are plugins you can use to control structure of your text. The age of the table layout is over https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-grid-columns/

What is the name of your child theme folder? I want to see if I can access it through your maintenance plugin

Theme Name: child-theme

In the end, I couldn’t access that behind the maintenance screen. I can’t really commit to being online when you disable your maintenance screen, so that’s a bit of an issue.
Generally, I wouldn’t think the latest code that I suggested would cause any issues with your navigation bar.
Something else might seem to be amok here.
A tip though, always add your CSS modifications below the @import line.
