I have a landscape document that has 5 seperate areas on the sheet with
seperate information. I want gridlines in each seperate section but not in
between the area's. Then I want to sort each area By itself. Confused yet? I
did some cell merging to get to the point i'm at now but it will not let me
sort data in each area seperately because when I select gridlines to get them
in all the areas it put them between the area's and thinks it one document to
sort instead of seperate....

example:

Individual Scores                                                Team Scores
NAME             SCORE       AVERAGE                     NAME            
SCORE     AVE
John Doe            5            8.5                              Team 1    
       6           3.5
Jane Doe            2            9.5                              Team 2    
       5           2.5
Bobby Doe          3            4.5                              Team 3      
      4           5.5

1) You can't sort merrged cells
2) when adding borders select the area you want to add border before doing
the formating.  I would recommmen d clearing all the borders and sttarting
from scratch.  You can remove all borders on a worksheet by clicking the box
between column A and row 1 highlights entire worksheet).  Then go into format
menu and select borders - None.  Then highlight area that you want borders
and add new borders.

the gride line won't print.  Are they really a problem?  You may want to add
some background fill to make the spreadsheett easierr to managger.  You can
grey out cells you don't want any entries.  Color cells where you wantt
entries.

I guess what i'm saying I want each of the seperate areas to be its own
seperate spreadsheet but all on one page.

It doesn't really make too much of a diffference if thing are on one
worksheet or multiple worksheets.  You can add page breaks so each area gets
printed on its own sheet.   You have to judge which is the best way to setup
the spreadsheet(s).
