Ms office Tip-The Clean Sheet

The Clean Sheet

Are there times when you find MS Excel's gridlines more distracting than helpful?

Wish there was a way to get rid of them and just view a clean worksheet?

If you answered yes, I've got exactly what you're looking for!

Gridlines in older versions of Excel are controlled through the Options window (Tools menu, Options choice).

Once you're in the Options window, you're looking for the View tab.

Under the View tab, you need to uncheck the Gridlines box in the Window Options section.

Then click OK.

If you're working with Excel 2007, you're looking for the View ribbon, Show/Hide section.

Again, you'll need to uncheck the Gridlines option to hide them.

Regardless of the version you're using, at this point, your gridlines have vanished, leaving you with a clean sheet!
