1px vs thin, problems with IE and Excel

I have an html table that displays in IE and Excel (for reporting)

If I set the border width to thin, it displays a 2px border in IE and a 1px border in Excel.

However, if I set it to 1px, it shows a 1px border in IE and a 2px border in Excel (???).

How can I make them BOTH show a 1px border as it looks awful with a 2px border.

Saving the excel file in html encodes CSS as follows:

.xl32
{mso-style-parent:style0;
border-top:.5pt solid windowtext;
border-right:1.0pt solid windowtext;
border-bottom:1.0pt solid windowtext;
border-left:.5pt solid windowtext;}

.5 is displayed as a regular line, 1.0 as a thick line So I think setting te with .5pt should work ...
