Any ideas - this comes for the MISC group

reply:
Check on tools/option/viewtab shows Automatic setting or black
I added a printer but the one I am using for the Excel printouts is the same
one that used to work to print the gridlines
No, they do not show in print review.l

don't understand the last part of the subject title, this is excel.printing

Gridlines will not print or display or preview if you have borders or cell color.
A white background is not the same as automatic. I don't see an indication
that see gridlines in normal display.

Hi

If gridlines are not printing there might be beacuse of the following
reasons :

1. While you set your page setup, the gridlines option is not checked .

So Check the option in your page setup i.e "GRIDLINES" and then try to
print.This should resolve the issue

Regards
Ravi
